Former Liverpool star is BANISHED from the first team and brutally transfer-listed by new club after nightmare season

A former Liverpool favourite has been banished from the first team and transfer-listed at his new club. 

The decision comes after a torrid campaign in which he played just 107 minutes. 

It culminated in the star refusing to play after being told that he would be benched for a match towards the end of the season.

This came to a climax in April when he found out he would only be on the bench to play against Bayer Leverkusen and thus refused to board the team bus to the game.

Werder decided to suspend him until the end of the season, banish him from training and the dressing room, and hit him with a ‘significant’ fine. 

Unable to resolve the conflict over the summer, they have re-banished him and put him up for sale.
