Steven Gerrard convinced me to quit Liverpool, claims Fernando Torres
Fernando Torres has revealed it was in fact Steven Gerrard who convinced him to quit Liverpool in a £50 million deal with Chelsea in January 2011.
The Spaniard said the Reds skipper told him to only think about himself and do what was best for his career rather than the club.
“Even when I was leaving Liverpool he told me ‘go, think about yourself. Do what’s best for you – you’ve nothing to prove’,” Torres said, according to The Independent.
