Liverpool's Argentine winger Sebastian Leto could be set for a loan move back home with River Plate. Ole' is reporting that the new River boss Diego Simeone is unhappy with the quality of his left midfielders and has suggested Leto's name as a potential re-inforcement.

Earlier in the week it looked as if Leto, along with Nabil El Zhar, was all set for a loan move to Spanish club Racing Santander but that deal doesn't look like going through after the Racing president Francisco Pernia revealed that they were looking for more experienced players.

Leto was a star with his previous club Lanus, with whom he got better and more influential with the passing of every game and put in some exceptional performances towards the end of the season including a man of the match display against continental champions Boca Juniors. His arrival on Merseyside was overshadowed by those of Fernando Torres, Ryan Babbel and Yossi Benayoun yet there were genuine hopes that he could quickly force himself into the side.

Yet, despite starting promisingly for the reserves, he has dramatically faded away and hasn't been included in the Liverpool squad since surprisingly starting the home game against Olympique Marseilles in the Champions League. A genuinely talented player, these continued omissions - particularly in the cup games against Chelsea and Luton - are all the more surprising given the lack of alternatives on the left hand side of Liverpool's midfield and would indicate at off the field problems with the player perhaps struggling to get to grips with life away from Argentina.
