Liverpool suffer transfer blow after Malaga star denies Anfield visit
Malaga midfielder Ignacio Camacho adresses transfer speculation linking midfielder with Liverpool move
Ignacio Camacho has denied reports that the Malaga midfielder visited Liverpool’s training ground to discuss a summer move to Anfield.
The Spain international has been linked with a switch to the 18-time English champions at the end of the 2015/16 La Liga campaign.
Camacho has scored two goals in 17 La Liga appearances so far this term, racking up 1,468 top-flight minutes for Malaga.
The 25-year-old was reported to have visited Liverpool’s Melwood training ground in recent weeks as the Reds sought to strike a deal for the Spanish defensive midfielder.
However, Camacho has rubbished speculation linking him with an imminent move to the 18-time English champions.
“On the theme of Liverpool, I don’t know anything, just that my father was alerted on Google. I was not there,” Camacho is quoted as saying by talkSPORT.
“There were offers, but either they did not reach the termination [clause] or convince the club, or me. If I go, it will be the best for both [parties].
“I don’t want to leave Malaga by the back door. I want to work things out with the club.”
Camacho, who is 182 centimetres tall, has picked up six yellow cards in La Liga so far this season.
