Plessis Set For Exit

Benfica hope to sign Liverpool midfielder Damien Plessis for as little as £600,000.
The 22-year-old has failed to make the grade at Anfield after signing from Lyon three years ago and is understood to be keen on a move to the Portuguese champions.
Even if negotiations falter, Plessis could seek a return to France this summer in a bid to get his career back on track.
Signed by former Reds boss Rafa Benitez, Plessis has made just three Barclays Premier League appearances in as many seasons, scoring once in a total of eight matches.
Big things were expected of the France Under 21 international when he was snared from then French champions Lyon in 2007, but he has failed to turn his impressive reserve performances into first-team opportunities.
