ATHENS (Reuters) - Bolton Wanderers midfielder Stelios Giannokopoulos says he is still keen to move to "a bigger club", with Liverpool his dream location. In an interview in the Greek daily newspaper Eleftheros Typos on Monday, Giannokopoulos is quoted as saying: "I would give everything to go to Liverpool." The 31-year, who was a member of the Greece team who won the 2004 European championship, was close to a move to Liverpool last year but talks between the two clubs failed to produce a deal and instead he signed a new three-year contract with Bolton. "I have become more stubborn since last season when I didn't go to Liverpool - although their official proposal gave me moral satisfaction," said Giannokopoulos. "That's my dream. Not only to go to Liverpool but, in general, to go to a bigger team. Then I would say that I have reached the peak of my career. That's my vision and I am working very hard every week to make Liverpool or any big team chase my signature." Bolton are seventh in the Premier League, four places behind European champions Liverpool. Giannokopoulos, however, who has scored 12 times for Bolton this season, including the first goal in Sunday's 4-3 defeat at Middlesbrough, did not rule out a return to Greece. "I would rather stay and finish my career abroad. But if I come back to Greece it will only be for (former club) Olympiakos," he said. Elsewhere in the interview he praised Manchester City's Greek striker Georgios Samaras. "He is only 21 but he plays like a 29-year-old," he said. "He is very mature and very talented. If he continues with the same rhythm, then City will be too small to keep him. He is made for bigger stuff." http://today.reuters.co.uk/news/newsarticl...NNOKOPOULOS.xml
