Degen Leaves On Loan

Liverpool have confirmed that Philipp Degen has joined VfB Stuttgart on loan until the end of the 2010-11 season.
The right-back was signed by Rafael Benitez on a free transfer after leaving Borussia Dortmund in the summer of 2008.
Commenting on his move to Germany, Degen said: "I'm looking forward to the challenge and the wonderful VfB fans.
"I really want to make use of my chance. It's fantastic to be working together with Christian Gross again. I had a very successful time with him in Basel."
VfB Stuttgart boss Gross said: "I know Philipp very well and rate him highly both as a football player and as a person.
"He is a very athletic and fast player, who often looks to push forward. Philipp wants to take his chance at VfB."
