Mexican keeper claims Liverpool interest

Ajaccio keeper Guillermo Ochoa says Liverpool have been in contact over a possible move but plenty of top European clubs are also keen.

The Mexican has been linked with a switch to Anfield in the summer with uncertainty over number one Pepe Reina, who is reportedly a target of Barcelona.

Ochoa says his agent has held initial talks about a potential move to the Reds but, in what could be an attempt to generate further interest, he has also mentioned top European clubs AC Milan, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Inter, Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund as possible destinations.

The 27-year-old told Orange: "There was some communication with Liverpool, but I let everything be handled by my agent and my club's president. My job is to remain focused and think about my team, Ajaccio.

"There is no doubt, though, that this is a dream I have had since I came to Europe, since I started playing football.

"My agent had contact with Liverpool but there is nothing concrete. I hope this summer there will be some offers and I will analyse if it is the right time for me to leave Ajaccio.

"It will be difficult to choose between Liverpool, Milan, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Inter, Bayern, Dortmund. It depends on how everything happens, I'll then choose the best one regarding all aspects."

He added: "The idea is to play for one of the best teams. But it is hard to decide as there are five very good leagues: Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga and Ligue 1."
