Barcelona and Cameroon striker Samuel Eto'o has admitted that he would love to play for Liverpool FC, also saying that their fans are the best around.

Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez has already stated his desire to bring the Cameroonian forward to Anfield as one of the players on his transfer wish-list during the summer close season, with Eto' also hinting that such a move would be ideal for him.

Speaking to The Sunday Mirror, 26-year-old Eto’o said: "It is their fans who win matches for Liverpool because they have so much power.

"They are fantastic. Any player would love to have those types of fans behind him."

Despite a well publicised disagreement with Barça manager Frank Rijkaard earlier this season, Eto’o says he has had no contact with any other clubs and he still believes he will still be a Barcelona player next season.

"I have not heard anything from Liverpool or anyone else. These things don't come through to me.

"English football has changed a lot for the better over the past few years. I've seen English teams playing matches which have been very exciting.

"I love the way the fans in England get behind their team. I respect their mentality," finished Eto'o.
