Athens, Greece (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Albert Riera has left Liverpool to sign with
Olympiakos, the Greek club announced on Friday.
Riera signed with Liverpool from Spanish side Espanyol in 2008 for a fee of
$12 million, but he has now moved to Greece for a reported $5 million.

Albert Riera," a statement from Olympiakos read. "The player has signed a
four-year agreement."
Riera's first season at Anfield included 24 appearances in league play with
four goals, but he endured a terrible time last season as he made just nine
starts before falling out with manager Rafael Benitez.
The 28-year-old Riera joins Yossi Benayoun on his way out of Liverpool, while

Terrell Owens could return for Cowboys next game
A bye week will allow Terrell Owens broken hand to recover just in time for the next game the Dallas Cowboys are slated to play, according to reports. MySportsbook.com, an football sportsbook, has posted football betting lines on TO playing.
Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday. Although Owens' hand was swollen and aching Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said he's optimistic the receiver will be back at work next week and catching passes a week from Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.
MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.
"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."
Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
