Benayoun will make $25M over the 4 year period, which makes him the 3rd highest paid squad member for Liverpool (according to Israeli press).

I think this is a brilliant move by Benitez. I believe Yossi is about to play his best season yet and the huge salary means Rafa will be committed to put him in the starting squad on a regular basis.

Just a reminder – some of Benayoun's clutch goals from 2008/9: (anyone said Real?)

Big Chapeau for the Israeli wonder!
