Craig Bellamy: 'It's an honour to be signed by Kenny Dalglish'

Craig Bellamy says that signing for childhood idol Kenny Dalglish is a "massive honour".

New Liverpool signing Craig Bellamy has spoken of the "honour" of being signed by a childhood idol, manager Kenny Dalglish.

The Welshman completed a return to Anfield on a free transfer from Manchester City late on Wednesday evening as the summer transfer window drew to a close.

Bellamy told Liverpool's official website: "I've grown up with Kenny Dalglish, now to be signed by him is a massive honour.

"This is an exciting time. When Kenny took over, watching as a fan last season I got the buzz as well and it was great to see Liverpool end the season well."

The 32-year-old, who became the Reds' seventh summer signing, added that he is excited about Liverpool's current squad.

"For me, the players they've signed this summer, there has been a lot of British which takes me back to when I started watching Liverpool. It looks so familiar to me and to be part of it is such a huge honour," he explained.

Bellamy spent last season on loan at Championship side Cardiff, scoring 11 times in 35 appearances.
