Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez has confirmed the club are looking
to offload winger Albert Riera in the next fortnight.
The Spain international angered Benitez with his outspoken
criticism last week, claiming the manager does not communicate with
players and describing Liverpool as a "sinking ship".
He was immediately suspended for several days by the club and
it now seems certain Riera, who has a Russian wife, is likely to be
farmed out on loan to a Russian club before the close of their
transfer window early next month.
"We are working with different clubs trying to find a
solution at this moment," said Benitez.
"We will try to do some business if we can and see what
happens."
