Momo Sissoko, currently on duty with Mali at the African Cup of Nations in Ghana, could be leaving Liverpool this month, says Reds' manager Rafa Benitez.

"We know that they [Juventus] are interested in Momo but we need to wait until the end of the transfer window and we need to be calm," said Benitez.

"There are two Spanish clubs and two Italian clubs also interested in Momo and we will try to do the best for the club."

Asked if he thought Sissoko would leave this month, Benitez said: "Yes, I think so. It could be a possibility but it depends on the other teams, if they push hard or not."


Rafa Welcomes Finnan's Decision

Benitez has also welcomed the news that Steve Finnan has retired from international football, saying that can only be a good thing for Liverpool.

"Steve told me the other day and it is very positive for us," he said. "At his age it's important to concentrate on your team so I think this is very good news for us."
