Sami Hyypiä is now leaving Liverpool to play for German side Bayer Levekusen. The great Finn has been a center back at Anfield for the last decade, and will be remembered by the fans for his loyalty.

As Rafa Benitez is eager to get some quality new players to Anfield this summer, he will also have to sacrifice some of his more profiled players in order to finance the new deals. The first to leave, could very well be winger Ryan Babel. The Dutchman is said to be free to talk to other clubs about a potential 11 million move. *EDIT* Latest news: The transfer could now be worth as little as £ 8 million, as Liverpool realise they will lose money on Babel. It cost Liverpool £ 10 million to sign him from Ajax in 2007.
