Andres Iniesta Believes Torres Decision Is Close

Andres Iniesta has hinted that Fernando Torres will make his decision on whether to leave or stay at Liverpool in the next fortnight.

Torres' future at Anfield was thrown into doubt when the club failed to qualify for the Champions League at the end of last season.

But the striker has refused to discuss his domestic future while away playing for Spain at the World Cup in South Africa. But while Torres has been on international duty Roy Hodgson has taken over as manager from Rafa Benitez.

But Iniesta, who scored the winning goal in the World Cup final in Sunday believes that Torres is close to making a decision.

Speaking to the Daily Express Iniesta said: "Fernando was fully focused on Spain and we didn't even talk about his future until last night.

"He is going to take a break with his wife and daughter [after attending his sister's wedding this week], speak to Liverpool and take things from there.

"Any club that has him is lucky to have him. David Villa says Torres is the most complete striker in the world and his future will be decided in the next two weeks."

Chelsea is just one of the clubs who have expressed an interest in the striker rumoured to be lining up a £50 million bid to temp him away from Anfield.

It's yet unknown the extent of the injury that Torres picked up in the final on Sunday night and will have a scan at some point in the next couple of days.
