Craig Bellamy has revealed that the chance to hook up with Kenny Dalglish at Anfield was just too tempting to turn down.
The striker claims that Dalglish was a boyhood hero of his, and was willing to take a pay-cut in order to play under him.
The Welsh international stated: “This is an exciting time. When Kenny took over, watching as a fan last season I got the buzz as well and it was great to see Liverpool end the season well.”
Bellamy went on to say: “For me, the players they’ve signed this summer, there has been a lot of British which takes me back to when I started watching Liverpool. It looks so familiar to me and to be part of it is such a huge honour.”
