Voronin, who represented his country in the 2006 World Cup along side Andriy Shevchenko, left the BayArena with a record of 21 goals in 71 league games.

Following a decent pre-season the ponytailed striker made his Liverpool debut as a substitute against Aston Villa in August, 2007. Four days later he scored his first goal for the Reds against Toulouse in a Champions League qualifier.

An ankle injury in January 2008 limited the strikers impact at Anfield, but in truth he had been struggling to make the starting eleven on a regular basis prior to being sidelined. He scored six goals in an injury-hit first season on Merseyside.
