Dani Pacheco linked with move away from Liverpool

Young Liverpool starlet Dani Pacheco could be on his way out of Anfield in January, with a number of Spanish clubs reportedly interested in the forward.

Pacheco, who is highly rated by the Anfield faithful, is reportedly frustrated at a lack of first-team football this season, having not featured in Roy Hodgson’s plans since the Reds League Cup defeat at the hands of League Two outfit Northampton Town.

Interest in the 19-year-old is believed to be high, with a number of clubs from Spain – including Espanyol, Malaga and Real Sociedad – reportedly being ready to make a move for Pacheco, who was the top scorer at the last European Under- 19 Championship in France.

“He’s had moments when he’s looked good, others when not quite so,” Hodgson said of the Spaniard in a recent interview.

“He’s working on his game. He featured in that unfortunate Northampton game. It was a great opportunity for those outside the first 13 or 14 to really show me, ‘You should be thinking of me’.

The Liverpool boss added: “When will he get a chance again? Probably in one of these games in Europe and who knows, maybe he will burst back on to the scene, but it’s very difficult to do that in a reserve game.”
