Fabio Aurelio looks set to leave Liverpool at the end of the season as Rafa Benitez cannot justify offering him a new deal.
The Brazilian defender, who is out of contract in the summer, has been struggling for fitness this season and is currently on the sidelines with a thigh injury.
Benitez would like to keep hold of the player but admits he has concerns over his fitness and will not be able to offer him a new deal unless he gets back and proves himself.
"We have to analyse the situation because he's had too many injuries," said Benitez. "If he comes back early we can look at it again."
