‘Leaving Liverpool was the best decision of my life’ – Luis Alberto thriving at Lazio after Anfield struggle

Luis Alberto considers leaving Liverpool to be “the best decision” of his life, with the Spaniard having to walk away from Anfield and link up with Lazio in 2016.

The Spain international winger was a highly-rated prospect when the Reds snapped him up for £6.8 million ($8m) in 2013.

He was, however, to struggle for regular game time during his spell on Merseyside. Just 12 appearances were made for Liverpool, with loan moves to Malaga and Deportivo La Coruna.
