FORMER Liverpool midfielder Luis Garcia, who left the club to join Atletico Madrid over the summer, has expressed his thanks to the Anfield club’s supporters.
He said: "Taking the decision to change clubs hasn’t been easy. Not easy at all.
"I’ve experienced three fantastic years at Liverpool and in the city.
"Three years in which together, the fans and the team, we have accomplished some fantastic achievements, and I’m sure that these successes will continue to be repeated in the near future.
"Liverpool gave me the opportunity to be part of an ambitious plan to put them back at the summit of the game.
"I think that together we managed to achieve that."
Garcia added: "Your support allowed me to settle quickly at both the club and in the city, and you made me feel really at ease with you all right from the word go.
"That’s the kind of help that you notice most of all during the difficult times, of which there have been a few during my time here."
Garcia’s message, which is in the form of a personal letter to Liverpool fans, can be read in full on the club’s website.
