Kuyt delighted to playing ‘one more time at Anfield’ ahead of Liverpool friendly [divider]
Fenerbahçe winger Dirk Kuyt revealed that he was delighted that Liverpool FC invited him to the March 29 charity game.
Kuyt admitted that he never expected that he would return to Liverpool as a player and that he is looking forward to the experience.
“It’s just a very positive feeling because you never expect these kinds of things to come back,” Kuyt told the official Liverpool website.
The 34-year-old underlined that he lived unforgettable moments at Liverpool and that he will always remember the special games and moments.
“When I closed the door behind me after six years at Liverpool, you’ll never forget the memories you had – the Champions League nights, the special days at Anfield,” he added.
“You never forget them. But you never expect to go back and play one more time at Anfield – and on such a special occasion.”
