Liverpool FC's Ryan Babel agrees Anfield exit

RYAN Babel is set to sign for Hoffenheim after the winger this evening agreed to a move.

The 24-year-old will fly to the German club tomorrow to finalise the deal to the Bundesliga side.

It comes six days after the Reds and the TSG 1899 club settled upon a fee for the Dutchman.

Babel has spent the last week contemplating the offer, and it was initially thought he had turned down the transfer as he had his heart set on returning to former club Ajax.

This morning, Kenny Dalglish told a press conference the winger had decided to remain at Anfield.

But in an apparent U-turn, Babel has now committed to Hoffenheim, in a deal believed to be valued at £5.8m
