Liverpool winger Jermaine Pennant is a target for several Spanish clubs, skysports.com understands.

The 25-year-old's current contract expires in the summer and he can talk to interested foreign clubs from January.

Pennant, who has found himself frozen out things at Liverpool this season, would be a free agent in the summer and he is able to sign a pre-contract with any foreign suitors next month.

The news has alerted a number of clubs across Europe with a host of Spanish sides sounding out a move for the former Arsenal and Birmingham ace.

Pennant has made just four appearances for Liverpool this season and he is well down the pecking order in Rafa Benitez's plans.

The likes of Blackburn, Newcastle, Portsmouth and Celtic have all been linked with the skilful wide-man, but a move to La Liga could be a tempting proposition for Pennant if he does leave Anfield.
