No Hertha deal for Voronin

On-loan Liverpool striker Andriy Voronin has admitted that he expects to return to the Premier League club at the end of the season. Voronin - currently enjoying a season-long spell in Germany with Hertha Berlin - had been expected to make a permanent switch to the Bundesliga title chasers at the end of the campaign. However, Hertha were unable to come to an agreement with Liverpool over a fee and the deal now looks dead in the water. "On the matter of my contract there has been no movement in Berlin," he told Bild newspaper. "Liverpool made a good offer which Hertha did not accept. It is a shame that it may not go through. "I have already ordered the boxes and am moving out of the apartment within a month-and-a-half." Hertha may yet be able to conclude a transfer for the 11-goal striker, but the capital club are believed to be waiting to see whether they can secure the windfall of Champions League football before returning to negotiations.
