http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Edinson-Cavani-c11955 in the January transfer window, some sources have learnt.
Brendan Rodgers, who took over the reins of the club in summer, is currently operating with a depleted squad. The manager has been, in particular, over-reliant on the likes of Luis Suarez and Raheem Sterling, with the former having led the Reds charge alone
since injury to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fabio-Borini-c13163.
Liverpool’s troubles in their frontline have been badly exposed, calling on the need for the manager to bring in reinforcements in January.
The Merseyside club have already been linked with the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Napoli-c40003 superstar who has drawn maximum interest from the Reds, as Rodgers feels that he will prove
to be a perfect partner for Luis Suarez in the frontline.
Something which might work to Rodgers’ advantage is the fact that the Premier League’s top-flight clubs of Manchester City, Manchester United and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 are rumoured to have given up the chase on the mercurial striker.
Besides, the player’s agent, Claudio Annelucci, has confirmed that his client wants to play in the Premier League, and that representatives from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 and Liverpool have both approached him on the subject.
Earlier, during an interview, Annelucci is reported to have said, “Liverpool and Arsenal are the first clubs Cavani has agreed to talk to.”
“It is no secret that Cavani wants to play in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749; it is one of his biggest dreams.”
During the summer window, Napoli had put a whooping price tag of 48 million pounds on the forward. However, this time around, the Italian club will be willing to reduce their demand to close to 30 million pounds – something which is manageable for both Liverpool
and Arsenal.
However, if Cavani’s move to Anfield is to come to fruition, Rodgers will have to do away with some of the fringe players to ease the financial constraints of the transfer. On that score, he might sell players like http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jordan-Henderson-c19102, with
the former having already revealed that he has got the green signal from the manager to decamp from Anfield.
The Reds have struggled miserably thus far to assert their dominance in the offence, something which the Ulsterman feels needs to be tended to in January.
He said, “I don't want to say a particular number but, at the top end of the field, we need that help and support…This season was always going to be one of transition but that doesn't stop us being motivated to fight on.”
For all we know, Cavani might prove to be the missing link for the Reds which will give strong impetus to Rodgers much talked about Anfield revolution.
