David Trezeguet has revealed that he snubbed an offer from Liverpool in favour of joining newly-promoted La Liga side Hércules.
The 32-year-old striker joined Hércules on a free transfer after mutually terminating his contract with Juventus.
"Lazio and Liverpool were interested. But things went on," Trezeguet told L'Équipe.
"The English club waited to sort out the transfer of (Javier) Mascherano before starting anything else.
"Anyway, after 10 years in Turin, above all I needed to find sun and sea again. And the fact that my wife is from the region also played a part in my decision."
