Liverpool will let Diego Cavalieri leave the club. Cavalieri has told Roy Hodgson he wants to leave the Reds so he can play regular first team football. Hodgson has agreed and the goalkeeper will hold talks with Italian side Cesena after tonight's game. "Diego has done a marvellous job for the last three years," said the boss. "He's a very good goalkeeper and a very good person, but he made it clear to me at the start of the season that after three years of watching Pepe play every week he might, if he's not careful, lose his goalkeeping ability or his status as a first-team goalkeeper. "He made it clear he'd like to leave and find a club where he'll be able to play on a regular basis, so we set about the task of finding someone we thought would be as good a complement to Pepe Reina as Cavalieri has been. "That's why Brad Jones has come in. He's the man we've chosen to back up Reina, put him under pressure and, most importantly, be ready to play. "Diego will travel to Cesena after the game tomorrow night for a medical."
