FERNANDO TORRES believes Barcelona and not Real Madrid pose the biggest threat to Liverpool’s Champions League dream.
And the striker admits that Rafael Benitez’s current squad will “never be forgotten” if they manage to end the club’s 19-year wait for the championship this season.
The Anfield outfit have been drawn to face Spanish giants Real in the Champions League first knockout round next month.
Between them, the two clubs have won the European Cup 14 times, Real with a record nine triumphs and Liverpool with five.
It gives Torres another chance to return to his home city after injury ruled him out of both Champions League group games against former club Atletico Madrid earlier in the campaign.
And while the 24-year-old expects a tough encounter against the Bernabeu outfit, Torres has pinpointed Real’s bitter rivals Barcelona as favourites to lift the trophy in Rome in May.
