But if I don’t go now then I will leave in the summer. “After six years in Europe and with Shakhtar we are ready to move and I have spoken to my wife and daughter.”It's understood that Liverpool had a bid for the player rejected last week, but now that he has effectively said he has no more interest playing for the Ukranian side. However Liverpool should tread carefully, as they have missed out on January targets before to other Premier League rivals, and the 26-year-old has indicated that Anfield may not be the only club looking to sign the striker this month. Chelsea previously nicked Mohamed Salah from under the nose of Ian Ayre, and the Brazil international admits the Blues are a club who interest him, and are interested in him, too.
"It is my desire to move to a big league and I know that the English league is very strong. I am ready and I know that I will grow up a lot there. I am aware that two big clubs such as Liverpool and Chelsea are interested but I haven’t given my word to either of them. “I am not ruling out other leagues but I do want to play in the Premier League. In my mind, it is the strongest in the world. I want a challenge and to further my career there."
