Fernando Torres' agent has revealed that the player intends to stay with Liverpool next season, but failed to go as far as making any promises over his future.

Liverpool's failure to qualify for the Champions League next season has raised questions over the future of both Torres and captain Steven Gerrard.

Chelsea are hotly tipped to make an offer for Torres in the coming weeks, but for now agent Jose Antonio Peton believes Torres intends to remain at Anfield.

"For the moment, I can assure fans that Fernando will continue at Liverpool next season," Peton told Punto Radio.

"Everything is down to Liverpool's attitude but for the time being Fernando is happy at the club and has a good contract.

"Liverpool have not spoken to us about his future, so he is just concentrating on playing at the World Cup."
