Riera wants to leave this summer
Albert Riera has decided that he wants to leave Espanyol this summer, and has insisted that his destination could well be the Premiership. Liverpool and Tottenham have been linked with the winger.
Riera told a press conference: "I want to leave Espanyol. I do not want to be part of a club that does not take care of or protect its players.
"I do not know if I will go to Liverpool or any other team. I am staying hopeful and I would really like everything sorted out within the next two weeks.
"It would be best for everyone concerned, because I know that my transfer would clearly be beneficial. I do not want to cause any problems."
Riera started his career with Real Mallorca, while he has also had a stint in French football with Bordeaux.
