Torres: Villa out of Liverpool's range
Soccer Betting Lines
06/30/2009 - Liverpool, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Liverpool striker Fernando Torres has accepted that his club do not have the financial muscle needed to try and sign Valencia star David Villa.
Spain international Villa has been tracked by several of Europe's top clubs this summer, although he now looks set to stay put at the Mestalla.
Torres told Zoo magazine: "I don't know about Liverpool's financial situation but I know we don't have the same money as Manchester United or Chelsea.
"We're fighting them with less money every season. That's not a problem for us - we're a strong team and we'll win trophies with money or without it.
"The important thing is we're getting closer to the title. It's been frustrating for me because three years without a trophy for Liverpool is too long.
"I know Rafa Benitez is working hard to bring in good players, but I'm pretty sure David Villa will be too expensive for us.
"He is an outstanding striker and if Liverpool could sign anyone, I'd ask for him. He's been in sensational form this season."
