Liverpool Daily Post, 16 Aug 2005
Baros resigned to leaving
By Ian Doyle, Daily Post Staff

MILAN BAROS has admitted he is resigned to leaving Liverpool as Aston
Villa close in on his capture.

The striker could have played his last game for the Anfield side with
the long-running saga over his future nearing a conclusion.

Liverpool are demanding £7million for the 23-year-old, a figure that has
so far proven a stumbling block in the Midlands club's efforts to sign
the player.

Baros claims he has agreed personal terms with Villa that would increase
his salary, although French side Lyon also maintain an interest.

And the striker believes his future could be sorted soon after his
return from international duty with the Czech Republic this week, with
Villa thought ready to table a suitable bid.

"It seems that there is no other possibility than to say goodbye and
leave," said Baros.. "Apparently the coach wants to bet on other players
and I don't want to sit in the grandstand.

"When I return from the international team, it will be resolved. It
could be resolved this week."

He added: "I have not refused Aston Villa or said that I didn't want to
go there. It is a high quality club, it would certainly not be a step
back for me.

"We agreed on money straight away and they even raised their offer. I
would be on better terms than at Liverpool, but nothing has been agreed
yet."

Baros has not played in any of Liverpool's Champions League games this
season, but made a second-half substitute appearance against
Middlesbrough in the Premiership opener on Saturday.

And the striker has dismissed any suggestion of a rift with Benitez.

"The coach has some ideas and I think I am not in them," said Baros.
"But there is no personal thing in it, it is just football and I am not
bitter."
