Done deal according to Wikipedia

 

'In July 2010 he left Real Madrid and joined Liverpool'

 

must be true then.

 

I assume your messing.

 

Royston Drenthe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia It hasn't been referenced or anything. I can go and change it to 'In July 2010 he left Real Madrid and joined Liverpool where he will play in goal' if I wanted.

Either, can even play CM if required.

 

Quick, good left foot, little twat, combative.

 

I'm keeping them crossed.

 

Same here. I thought that I was the only person on here that would like to see the deal go through. 149.4% wanker, but he's fast, skillful, and can play in a number of positions. A good addition to the squad.

Drenthe is more of a winger then a left back.

 

He is capable of tracking back and not scared of doing his fair share of hard work.

 

Personally i would take him on loan and see how he performed.

 

He is a complete twat but as was the same with Bellamy he would be our complete twat.

'Roy...Royer....Royd...Rooyer...Royning...to be honest I don't fucking care, Royston! There you go, call him Royston'

 

All his mates call him Roy.

£9m Royston Drenthe will lift Liverpool - Liverpool FC

 

Liverpool appeared last night to have moved to solve the problem of the left back position at Anfield by attempting to secure the signature of Real Madrid's £9m rated Dutch player Royston Drenthe.

 

 

Though Wigan Athletic's Maynor Figueroa had seemed to be priority target for Roy Hodgson, the Liverpool manager can ill afford to delay in his move to fill a position which is a priority for him.

 

The departure of Argentine Emiliano Insua to Fiorentina for £4.5m earlier this summer has left the club with no recognised left back, following the departure of Andrea Dossena to Napoli in January and Fabio Aurelio's exit from the club as a free agent, following his failure to agree a new contract earlier this summer. Drenthe, 23, a former Dutch under-21 international, has been frustrated during his spell in Spain, having played just 46 times since he arrived three years ago from Feyenoord.

 

Drenthe, who can also operate as a left winger, claimed on his own facebook page that he is set to move to Anfield. "I will soon be joining Liverpool FC. I hope I will have a good season," he said.

 

Liverpool's interest in the player, who arrived at the Bernabeu at the same time as his compatriots Wesley Sneijder and Arjen Robben, pre-dates Rafael Benitez's departure from the club with initial inquiries coming before the end of last season.

 

This story has been reproduced from today's media. It does not necessarily represent the position of Liverpool Football Club.

I like the last line :D

It's a load of rubbish and his agent is going to sue the Facebook user who generated the story, according to BBC:

 

Real Madrid's Netherlands international Royston Drenthe is not on his way to Liverpool, despite reports - citing a supposed Facebook page for the player - suggesting a deal had been done. "I will soon be joining Liverpool FC. I hope I will have a good season," read the page.

 

However, his agent told BBC Sport: "Royston does not have a Facebook page, a Twitter page or a MySpace page. We will be taking legal action against the person who set up this false Royston Drenthe account.

 

"Royston is definitely staying at Real Madrid. He is happy there, he has spoken to the club directors and is looking forward to the new season at the Bernabeu."

 

I don't know how the agent told the BBC. Might have been via Twitter or something.

On BBC football now:

 

1244 BST: Real Madrid's Netherlands international Royston Drenthe is not on his way to Liverpool, despite reports - citing a supposed Facebook page for the player - suggesting a deal had been done. "I will soon be joining Liverpool FC. I hope I will have a good season," read the page.

 

However, his agent told BBC Sport: "Royston does not have a Facebook page, a Twitter page or a MySpace page. We will be taking legal action against the person who set up this false Royston Drenthe account.

 

"Royston is definitely staying at Real Madrid. He is happy there, he has spoken to the club directors and is looking forward to the new season at the Bernabeu."

 

 

Cracked me up, that bit in bold. How long has Stephen Sinatra been Drenthe's agent then?
