Liverpool have confirmed that the club
have re-signed left-back Fabio
Aurelio on a two year contract.
The Brazilian had left the Merseyside club earlier this summer,
after failing to agree a new contract on a pay-as-you- play
basis.
But now Aurelio has been offered a
new deal by manager Roy Hodgson who is believed to be a keen
admirer of the player.
"I asked the club to find out whether Fabio had found a new club.”
Hodgson told Liverpooltv.
"When we ascertained that he hadn't, we invited him back to Melwood
so both myself and my staff, and the medical team could properly
assess the player.
"We were both very impressed and I am delighted we were able to
re-sign Fabio."
Aurelio has been included in the Liverpool squad that traveled to
Germany on Saturday for the friendly against Borussia
Moenchengladbach.
