Kenny praises Aquilani

Last updated : 21 April 2011 By Al Campbell

Aquilani was allowed to join Juventus on a season long loan by Roy Hodgson last Summer. It was expected the Italian would sign for Juve on a permanent deal at the end of the current campaign. However, Dalglish has hinted that Aquilani may have a future with the Reds.

"When people talk about next season, I'm surprised they don't give Alberto a mention. Everyone seems to have forgotten about him," said the King.

"I know he has done really well at Juventus this season. When the loan finishes at the end of the season, he reverts back to being a Liverpool player.

"Nothing is cast in stone and he could be coming back to play for Liverpool. He could be a valuable asset here next season. He's still our player.

"He certainly didn't have the best of luck last season [with injuries].

"At times he did really well and at other times he didn't do quite so well but you can say that about most players. What I do know is that he's had a fantastic season at Juventus."
