Bellamy’s long-term Anfield career has been widely debated since Sunday, but it’s clear the Welshman is unperturbed by the speculation.
“I feel as if I’ve always been asked about my future at every club I’ve been,” he said.
“It was the same at Blackburn last year when I was linked everywhere, and when I was at Newcastle I was always linked with someone else.
“I’m used to that, and when you’re at a big club like Liverpool and you’re my sort of player, you’ll always hear someone wants to get rid of you, so it’s not unusual for me.”
Bellamy is determined the efforts in Spain don’t go to waste during the return leg, but insists there’s no prospect of Liverpool feeling the hard work is done.
He said: “There’s still a long way to go and Anfield will be a completely different game. It was important we didn’t milk it up at the end and let them see us celebrating as if it’s all over, because we all know it isn’t. We were as subdued as you can be when you win at the Nou Camp.”
