Goalkeeper Pepe Reina has admitted that he feels "disappointed" by Liverpool's decision to loan him out to Napoli without informing him first.
The 30-year-old agreed a move to Italy last week on a season-long loan deal following the arrival of Simon Mignolet at Anfield.
In an open letter to Liverpool fans, Reina wrote: "For the past eight years, that is all I have known. The club, the staff, the city, the people and the supporters have played a massive part in my life.
"Liverpool is special in a way that only those who are lucky enough to experience the club close up can understand. If I have one regret, it is the way that I am leaving.
"It is only natural that I would be disappointed that the Liverpool management agreed to loan me to Napoli without telling me first, I thought that I deserved better than that even though I understand that difficult decisions have to be taken in football."
Meanwhile, doubts still surround striker Luis Suarez, who has been the subject of a rejected £40,000,001m bid from Premier League rivals Arsenal.
