Liverpool fear price war over move for Switzerland star Gokhan Inler

04 Jul 2009 - 01:22:39

Liverpool have targeted Gokhan Inler to reinforce their midfield once they lose Xabi Alonso. With Real Madrid only delaying their offer for Alonso, and Barcelona still keen on Javier Mascherano, manager Rafa Benitez knows he mustfill the breach. But he has been alarmed at Udinese's £18million asking price for Switzerland midfielder Inler. Benitez is reluctant to bid more than £10m. Kenny Dalglish's return to Anfield was confirmed yesterday. He takes a senior post at the Academy.

  i totally agree with adam, rafa must consider how long it took him to build that midfield engineroom. if any the trio- steve, alonso and mascherano leave, then he starts again probly three or four years to perfect

  Liverpool shouldnt even think about getting rid of the heart of midfield. If they do they will need to find a better replacement which is going to be hard. Also of Liverpool want to win the league they need to keep the huge stars such as Alonso and Mascherano
