07/24/2008 - Liverpool, England (Soccer Betting) - Liverpool's Argentinian midfielder Sebastian Leto is set to spend next season out on loan with Greek side Olympiakos.
The 21-year-old made four appearances for the Reds last season and has been assured that he still has a long-term future at Anfield by manager Rafa Benitez.
Leto told the Greek media: "I spoke with people at the club and the decision is to leave and to play somewhere else on loan for one season.
"I have some offers from Italy and Spain but Olympiakos is the best club for me at the moment. I spoke with Rafa Benitez and he told me that he wants me, but I can't stay without the correct passport.
"He advised me to go somewhere else to play for one season and to return next summer. He is right."
Meanwhile, Benitez has snapped up two more promising youngsters to bolster his Anfield squad.
Spanish defender Emmanuel Mendy has joined on a three-year contract from Murcia Deportivo, while French striker David Ngog has penned a four-year deal to complete a move from Paris St. Germain.

Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament odds
As of February 9, MySportsbook.com has released its coveted 2007 Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament betting odds. “March Madness betting ” only a month away, the top ranked Florida Gators are favorite at 7-2 to win it all. The defending champs have not disappointed at all this season and currently have a 22-2 record and are undefeated (9-0) in SEC play. The Gators’ thrive off of their extremely balanced, experienced and versatile attack. All five starters started in last seasons National Championship game. What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.
Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country. A concern for the Tar Heels might be inexperience. Of their top four scorers/ minute earners, three are freshmen and the other is a sophomore. The rest of the regular season, the Tar Heels play only one team that is currently ranked (Duke). Their remaining opponents do combine for an impressive 107-58 record though.
Other teams that the MySportsbook.com members seem to believe will win it all include the west coasts’ top team #2 UCLA (6-1), #3 OSU behind man-child Greg Oden (8-1), and #4 Wisconsin (10-1) behind their defense which has given up 70+ points only three times all season.
