BABEL HEADS FOR EXIT TO BAYERN
Loan deal on cards for unsettled winger
BABEL: Bayern Munich targetLIVERPOOL are ready to offload motormouth Ryan Babel to Bayern Munich. Boss Rafa Benitez lost patience after the Holland star complained about his lack of starts for the club in midweek. He will be loaned to Louis van Gaal's side with a view to a £9million move in the summer.
A source said: "Rafa has totally blanked Babel since his outburst. He understands some of his concerns but has made it clear to the player more than once he will only play who he believes to be his strongest XI and won't budge.
"Rafa cannot give Babel the assurances he needs with the World Cup coming up so he will let him go if he's not happy.
"The manager's only concern with this is that he won't be getting any money to improve the squad from the move."
Former Ajax star Babel has only made 24 Premier League starts since arriving at Anfield for £11.5m in the summer of 2007.
Holland boss Bert van Marwijk has told Babel he will only go to the World Cup if he plays regularly.
But Babel's representatives are already working to secure a perfect escape route.
Van Gaal has known Babel since he was a child and is confident the 22-year-old can make his mark at Bayern and the club have no problem taking on his £40,000-per-week wages.
The Dutch coach's ongoing feud with Italian striker Luca Toni is also likely to give Babel an opportunity to play up front with either Mario Gomez or Miroslav Klose.

stupid, when the team is not doing well rafael wants to loan out player?
what a smart crap

Haiz Dun know wad Rafa or Babel is thinking...

Looks like there will be a lot of unhappy players who might want out in the January transfer window.
-
Any players that demand a 1st team placing mean out of the club for Ah Ben.
That is what happened to the rest of the other players.
Babel is just playing the mind game with Ah Ben.
Ah Ben is alway a sucker for that.
The rest of the players will follow suit.
World Cup is near and you need to be in 1st team to get selected.
He is just doing it for his own interest since Ah Ben dun really give him any chance.
