Kop out: Promising Spain Under 19 striker Daniel Pacheco is contemplating a move away from Liverpool this summer


Xabi Alonso is aiding Liverpool striker Daniel Pacheco as he gets set to quit Anfield.

Despite impressing for Spain at the Under 19 European Championship in France, the 19-year-old thinks he has little chance of breaking into Roy Hodgson's team and is tempted by a move to Real Sociedad.

The Basque club are keen and Pacheco admitted he had been guided by Real Madrid midfielder Alonso, who played for five years at Sociedad before joining Liverpool in 2004.

'Playing for Sociedad appeals to me. I have heard good things about the club, the city and the people. He (Alonso) has been helping and advising me,' said Pacheco.
