First of all we would like to congratulate Liverpool Striker Fernando Torres for becoming father. But liverpool’s Thai fans may will be very disappointed to not to see their two most popular players Steven Gerrard and Fernando Torres.
Steven Gerrard may will miss the Asian Tour to Singapore and Thailand because of his court schedules. But Torres’s absence from the Liverpool squad would spoil it completely for supporters here.
Organisers have neither confirmed nor denied whether Torres would arrive with the team. Former Liverpool star Steve McMahon who is organising the event said that Liverpool will be bringing their entire squad.
While speaking to The Bangkok Post, Mr McMahon said, “Every player will be on the trip to Thailand. It (Gerrard’s appearance) is something we cannot control. It is about the law. I don’t know how long it will take. If everything is done in time then he will surely come to Thailand.”
“I don’t want to talk negatively. I want to give a positive answer like we have just signed Glen Johnson and he will come here.” McMahon added.
There are also concerns surrounding the availability of midfielders Xabi Alonso and Javier Mascherano. Alonso is a summer transfer target for Real Madrid and Mascherano may be left behind so that he can be with his pregnant wife.
Liverpool started in the friendly match against St Gallen last night and is preparing to play in another exhibition game in Austria on Sunday. The entire team is then scheduled to leave Europe and head to Asia for matches against the Thailand and Singapore national teams on July 22 and 26 respectively.
