Glen Johnson Desperate To Join Inter Milan In January

By Chris Wright

Liverpool right-back Glen Johnson has reportedly ‘told his friends’ that he wants to leave Anfield as soon as he gets the chance, and that he has his heart set on a January move to Inter Milan.

Those bastions of journalistic integrity over at Goal.com have somehow managed to snag an EXCLUSIVE! interview with the anonymous friend in question, and the revelations garnered are certainly…well, revealing:

“Glen thinks he’s going to Inter in January and wants to leave Liverpool if he gets the chance. He is more content at Liverpool than some people have suggested – but he’s not happy.

“It’s not that he has a massive problem with Hodgson, but Glen doesn’t think he rates him and was understandably angry that he was criticised so publicly.

“He thinks throughout his career he has always performed best under managers who he knows have faith in him.”

…i.e. one Rafael Benitez, who may or may not still be in charge at the Giuseppe Meazza come the turn of the year after a fairly underwhelming start to his career in Serie A.

In all seriousness, I wouldn’t be overly surprised if Liverpool’s shrewd new owners allowed Johnson to leave over the winter (for any kind of decent fee) in favour of bringing in (or possibly promoting 20-year-old Martin Kelly from the reserves) a younger right-back that actually possesses a modicum of defensive sensibility.

    Unless Maicon goes to Madrid (But what about Ramos)

    then I cant see this move happening

    My best mate was at the pub the other day and a really close friend of Messi was there. Apparently Messi is telling all of his mates that he really wants to join Liverpool FC. Seriously, you should make a story out of it… it’s EXCLUSIVE!

  3. This is up there with the other ____ to Inter rumors. It has become ridiculous with who is being linked to Inter, we all know the fat waiter cannot attract the talent that Mourinho could. But I hear goal.com figures Schwieni could be in Milan as well.

  4. Scouse Billy says:

    “Desperate” eh?

    Where did you pick up that “exclusive”, you knob end?

  5. Mr. Angry says:

    what a load of shite!

  6. Ollie Irish says:

    I seriously doubt Rafa will be at Inter in January anyway! He’s on his way.

  7. Kevin Barry says:

    twat

  8. Joe says:

    Didn’t they have that fella who is quite decent at right back? Macon or something?

  9. Chris says:

    @Joe: According to the source, the plan is to play them both with one of the two pushed up into midfield – which one is anyone’s guess!

    Glen is just a complainer. Liverpool fc is the right club for him, whether he encounters criticism it may be part of discipline to make him like a world class player.I may see Glen Johnson at Inter Milan struggling during some games. Rafa Benitez has just made a ridiculous idea to become Inter manager. Inter has lost games against Lazio,etc. By the way, Liverpool fc has been improving well, thanks to manager Roy Hodgson.
