Ahead of the League Cup final on Sunday, Florent Malouda has revealed he could have signed for Liverpool before joining Chelsea.
The French winger had a glittering six-year stint with the West London club, winning a whopping six trophies, including the club's first ever Champions League. But thanks to a former Liverpool manager he was offered a pathway that could have seen him become a Kop hero instead.
France international Malouda was playing for Lyon at the time under the management of former Liverpool boss Gerard Houllier, who tried to engineer a deal for his old club to sign the player.
