Between June 2007 and January 2011, Fernando Torres excelled in a great service for Liverpool, having been listed at the time as one of the best forwards on the planet, before moving on to Chelsea. However, the former Spanish international confesses some regret for the management of the club at that time and revealed it exclusively in an Amazon documentary.

“There was a great contradiction between what they said and what they did. They wanted to bring in players so that we could finally compete for the title with Manchester United, and suddenly Xabi Alonso, Mascherano, then Rafa Benítez left. Little by little, the team fell apart and I don’t regret leaving because they didn’t fulfill what they promised and the expectations they created for me. At that time no one wanted to hear from the fans, the club was in ruins internally and it took them many years to recover.

– When I explained the situation to the leaders and told them that I wanted to leave, they did not seem concerned at all. They only talked about the price and the club I was going to… They stabbed me and betrayed me because, the next day, things appeared in the press as if I was to blame for the situation, ”said Fernando Torres.
