ATLETICO MADRID will plead with star striker Fernando
Torres to stay in Spain despite interest from a host of
Premiership clubs. Manchester United and Liverpool are rumoured to
be leading the chase for the 23-year-old striker. But Atletico
president Enrique Cerezo insists he has heard it all
before.
He said: "We always have the same problem. "Every year, either at
the start of the season, midway through or at the end, it is the
same. "Torres is an Atletico Madrid player and I think he is going
to remain with the team for many years.
"He is doing very well at Atletico Madrid, the fans want him and we
want him. "Is he not for sale and I do not think he is going to
leave."
