What’s motivating this guy’s desire to move to Liverpool.
More importantly why do Liverpool want him? 7m is a bit much for someone who is most likely going to be a sqaud player. At left back we’ve decent cover - Riise, Arbeloa and Aurelio. And he’s not great at centre-half imo. There’s better value elsewhere.
I just don’t get it.
Apparently Liverpool are offering a 4 year deal and he’s 29 now so there’s the security perspective along with the signing on fee of course. He’s also friendly with a lot of the Spanish speakers at Liverpool according to reports. I don’t think he’s near the player he was before his cruciate injury and I wouldn’t pay the reported fee for him. A few Liverpool supporters I know hold the same opinion regarding his talents as you clarkey but want to sign him just to rub up the ManU supporters.
