On loan Liverpool forward Taiwo Awoniyi says he is keen on leaving the club on a permanent deal as he begins his seventh consecutive loan spell since joining the team in 2015.
Awoniyi who is on loan to German Bundesliga side Union Berlin said he was keen on leaving on a permanent deal this summer but the move didn’t materialize hence his decision to agree to another loan deal.
He said his decision to push for a permanent transfer is borne out of the fact that he isn’t eligible for a work permit yet and doesn’t think he will be getting one anytime soon.
Liverpool according to the forward have taken very good care of him but he feels his career will be better if he is allowed to leave on a permanent deal.
“ “It is my dream to play for Liverpool,” he told ESPN. “But me playing for Liverpool has to do with getting my work permit.
“Without it, there is no chance for me discussing about playing for Liverpool for now.”
“This season was maybe a bit tough to make the decision because honestly, I was hoping to leave permanently.
“Liverpool have been great, they have been so supportive and we always talk with the director and every time, they tell me to be patient.
“But the reason I discussed something permanent this season was just that I felt most loans I have been to, have not really been the way I want it.
“And I felt like it happens that way because the loan players get less of an advantage than the players of their own club.
“That was what made me think, okay, maybe it’s time to find a home with my family.”
