Reds apply for new Gonzales work permit

Liverpool will apply for a work permit for Chilean winger Mark Gonzales on June 1st. Although Liverpool were denied a permit last year, circumstances have changed and the Reds are confident of a successful application this time around.

"There are many different factors this time. Firstly, we're signing Mark on a permanent deal, whereas a year ago it was initially a one season loan," said Liverpool Chief Executive Rick Parry.
 
"He's also fully fit having recovered from the serious injury he had this time last year, and Chile have also broken into the world's top 70 in the FIFA rankings.
 
"We'll be making the new work permit application on June 1."
