talks are also being held to bring in Shakhtar Donetsk attacking midfielder http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Henrikh-Mkhitaryan-c16068.
Carragher claimed that Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has learned from his experience last season and he is looking to bring in players as early as possible. The former defender added that it is a good sign that the club wants to complete the signings
