Breaking Premier League News: Liverpool sign Fulham’s Paul Konchesky
Liverpool Football Club has confirmed the signing of the 29 year old English player Paul Martyn Kochesky from Fulham. The latest reports from the Merseyside club are that a 4 million pound deal has been agreed up on.
It is said that the deal is not a simple money transfer deal but there is a player exchange clause in the deal. It is suggested that Liverpool is offering their young players like Lauri Dalla Valle and Alex Kacaniklic in exchange for the left back Konchesky.
The men in charge at Craven Cottage have stated that they are happy with the transfer deal and hope Konchesky will have a good career at Anfield.
Media reports have concluded that the 19 year old Valle and Swedish player Kacaniklic are also in demand by Fulham and a loan contract might be the result of the negotiations.
As Konchesky joins the Liverpool ranks Lucas Leiva might be moving away from the Reds. Sources have relayed that reason for that is his family’s lack of commitment to settle down at the Merseyside.
The Liverpool manager Roy Hodgson has indeed made a couple of smart signings this summer with arrivals of Danny Wilson, Milan Jovanovic, Joe Cole and Christian Poulsen.
Still they are desperately in search of a good left back to fill the gap though now they will also have to sign in a new defensive midfielder after Javier Mascherano left the Scouse for Barcelona.
Hodgson has announced that it is too late for the club to sign a good midfielder as the transfer window closes on 31st August. He has stated that as soon as the January opportunity opens he will make a move for the replacement.
On the left back issue he said that he will just have to sort it out by himself and do with what he has got. Insua who plays as the left back at Liverpool has also demanded a transfer therefore it is very unlikely that he will be playing with a red jersey this season.
Daniel Agger is playing at his position right now and the man who was refused renewal on his contract earlier this season, Fabio Aurelio has also resigned therefore the Merseyside has couple of options to play at last.
