The former Liverpool striker Dirk Kuyt has said that he decided to leave Anfield in the summer after growing frustrated about the lack of first-team opportunities especially in the last few months of the campaign. Dirk Kuyt finally brought an end to his six year spell at the club after sealing his £ 1 million move to the Turkish club Fenerbache. He has now said that he was not selected on a regular basis by the former manager Kenny Dalglish, while the Liverpool legend was also treating him in the unjust manner possible. This meant that he could not stay at the club any longer despite the exit of the manager.
Even the arrival of the former Swansea manager Brendan Rodgers to replace Kenny Dalglish did not help matters, as Fenerbache made a £ 1 million bid that was accepted by the Merseyside club. The 31-year-old may have just one major trophy to his credit with Liverpool during his six years with the club, but he is fondly remembered for his excellent work rate. Signed by the former manager Rafael Benitez, he was converted into a right winger from the striker’s position. Liverpool are now struggling with not any recognised striker’s other than Luis Suarez due to injury for Fabio Borini.
“It was hard. The last season wasn’t as I had expected it. I wanted to be more involved. The season before, I was the team’s top scorer and the player with the most assists, but new players came in and my time on the pitch was less than expected. You can see the team needs a little more time. Hopefully the supporters and everyone gives them a bit of time because Brendan is a great coach,” said the 32-year-old. He has signed a three-year contract with the Turkish club.

The former Liverpool striker Dirk Kuyt has said that he could one day influence the Manchester United striker Robin van Persie to join him at the Turkish club Fenerbahce. The Turkish club Fenerbahce have made a lot of high-profile signings from the Premier league following the arrival of Dirk Kuyt a few months ago.
The 31-year-old joined the Turkish club for around £ 1 million, thus bringing an end to his six-year association with Liverpool. He is already looking forward to winning many titles with his new club. He was extremely influential in helping the club secure the signing of the Chelsea midfielder Raul Meireles on the final day of the transfer window.
Now, he has said that he could once again play a major role if the club decides to sign the Manchester United striker Robin van Persie, who is now regarded as one of the best in the world. The 29-year-old Dutchman recently completed a £ 24 million move to Manchester United, but everyone is aware of the fact that might not have a long time at Old Trafford due to his age. In such a scenario, Dirk Kuyt says that he can persuade his international teammate to join him at the Turkish club in the future.
“I could play a role in bringing Van Persie to Fenerbahçe, I’m going to try to bring him here, I have spoken to him about this many times and we were away on holiday together. Personally, I feel in better shape than in 2004, I have gotten over my barren spell and have scored six goals in six games for Fenerbahçe. Istanbul is a beautiful and relaxing city. I’m happy and have even thought about settling down here after my playing career,” said Dirk Kuyt. Fenerbahçe are unbeaten in the league so far.
