Liverpool manager, Brendan Rodgers commended the ‘real passion’ of the Reds forward, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Craig-Bellamy-c9471 for the Merseyside club and revealed that he plans on utilizing his services in the coming season.
The former Manchester City player struggled to cement his place in the Reds starting eleven during the preceding term. He faced stiff competition from the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jordan-c2929 Henderson-all of whom play at the same position as the
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wales-c3041 International. In total, he featured in just 33 games during the 2011/12 campaign.
Given his lack of involvement in the first team at Liverpool, the winger has reportedly caught the attention of Championship outfit Cardiff City, who are believed to be preparing a bid for the player, in order to sign him during the transfer window.
With summer reinforcements likely to push him even further towards the pecking order, it is a popular belief that Bellamy will scarper away from Anfield in the summer.
However, the Northern Irishman unravelled that he had a ‘positive chat’ with the player on Monday, and that he held http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 FC in his highest esteem and veneration.
He also admitted that the player was passionate about making a contribution in the Reds 2012/13 campaign, and he will look to make the most out of his services.
He told the club’s official website, “I like his intensity, his work-rate and his passion so I would love him to be here. He's a player. It would take a really special and unique opportunity for Craig to walk out of Liverpool and for us to go our separate
ways.”
Liverpool signed the Welsh footballer as a free agent in August last year. His contract is set to expire by the end of the next term.
Earlier in the week, Bellamy was named in the Great Britain squad for the upcoming Olympic Games in London, and is expected to join the training camp in the coming days.
However, Rodgers indicated that he will keep in touch with him during the competition, along with his other players who are still on a break.
He further added that he shared his ideas with Bellamy as to how he plans on implementing his ideas at Anfield and received complimentary remarks in return.
