Now left a REAL striker PLUS MAYBE Gerrard replacement. We signed a good keeper to give Me-no -leg a reason to find his leg Liao
Liverpool have agreed a £12.5m deal for the Southampton right-back Nathaniel Clyne, who is set to become the club's sixth signing of the summer. Clyne, who has been capped five times by England, will now undergo a medical at Liverpool and finalise his personal terms.
The 24-year-old has given Southampton little encouragement that he will extend his contract with them and, although the south coast club had hoped for a fee of £15m for him, they have settled on a little less, with £2m of the money to be dependent on appearances. They had rejected Liverpool's opening offer of £10m. Clyne's deal with Southampton is set to expire next summer.
Clyne will follow three former Saints to Anfield - Adam Lallana, Dejan Lovren and Rickie Lambert moved there from St Mary's last summer - and he hopes to kick on after his fine season last time out, which brought him recognition at international level.
Clyne's sale has looked likely for several weeks and Southampton have put contingencies in place. They have signed Cédric Soares from Sporting Lisbon for an initial £3.6m while they have explored the possibility of taking Carl Jenkinson on loan from Arsenal.
Clyne is good according to what I saw from him playing agains us. Hope he maintain his form with us !!
Milner wore 7 at City and has chosen that again at Anfield, despite it famously being worn by some of the club's most iconic attacking players, including Kenny Dalglish and Kevin Keegan.
According to the Daily Mail, Firmino also requested 11 as his choice, though he wore 10 at his previous club Hoffenheim.
BR never learns. Kept buying Saints' flops...
Liverpool are on the verge of completing the signing of Aston Villa striker Christian Benteke, according to talkSPORT’s man on Merseyside.
The Reds have been heavily linked with a move for the powerful Belgium international in recent weeks and our Anfield insider Graham Beecroft claims a deal is now imminent.
Speaking on the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast, he said: "My understanding is Christian Benteke, who has been on their radar for some time, is very close indeed to signing for Liverpool.
"I expect him to sign if not today then certainly in the not too distant future. Liverpool have done their work and have sealed a deal [with Aston Villa]."
No fish prawn also can...Dun sound like a big name striker and likely wun be as prolific as sanchez, costa or aguero in EPL...
No fish prawn also can...
I guess we don't have a choice given the significant exodus of players. BR doesn't have much choice. I don't envy his position.
Liverpool have confirmed summer signing Danny Ings will wear the No.28 jersey for the club.
