Daniel Agger has been linked with a move to [U]Barcelona[/U][/URL] for a second successive summer after an approach was made to the [URL=‘http://www.theguardian.com/football/liverpool’][U]Liverpool[/U] defender’s agent, Per Steffensen.
Steffensen is understood to have been contacted by an agent claiming to represent the Spanish champions, rather than by Barcelona themselves, and Liverpool have not received any approaches for the Denmark international.
The Anfield club are unlikely to welcome a move for the influential 28-year-old, with Jamie Carragher having retired, Martin Skrtel’s future in doubt and Sebastián Coates having failed to convince the manager Brendan Rodgers.
Agger was the subject of firm interest from Barcelona and Manchester City last summer but signed a new long-term contract with Liverpool in October.
The Liverpool and England Under-21 left-back Jack Robinson, meanwhile, has joined Paul Ince’s Blackpool on a season-long loan.[/LEFT][/FONT][/SIZE]
This Costa chap could bring a heap of trouble on the club. Just reading there he has been involved in numerous spitting incidents, including snoting onto his own hand and flinging at an opponent. He has also been caught up in racial allegations.
In short, he will be an instant hit, welcome aboard!

The Liverpool supporters club in Krakow are bemused. The Chairman, Victor, asked me are we a fucking charity? I said I didn’t know but we are fast becoming a laughing stock.
