PLDC - Liverpool, Liverpool's managing director said, “We did some studies on Dejagah's situation in the preseason and we have considered him. Dejagah is a good player and enjoys a good level of competition and is acceptable for the premier league, but the coaches of Liverpool have considered a player with higher capabilities and that’s why they ignored him, to sign another player.”
