Agger appeared to be heading out of Anfield in January when Milan moved to take him to the San Siro and opened informal talks about a transfer. The defender has grown frustrated under manager Rafael Benitez after being relegated to the substitutes' bench on returning from a series of injuries this season. The Spaniard publicly insists that the player remains part of his long-term plans, but there is a growing sense of certainty to Agger leaving. Both Jose Mourinho and Claudio Ranieri, managers of Inter and Juventus respectively, have been alerted to the prospect of signing Agger, a highly rated Danish international, for a relatively modest fee in the summer, according to a report in the Mail. Agger has little more than a year to run on his current contract at Liverpool and negotiations over a new deal have almost irretrievably stalled. Should Agger remain on the fringes of Benitez's side then a summer move is likely, with Liverpool in a weak bargaining position when it comes to the fee. Milan remain the favourites to secure his signature but the competition from the two other Serie A giants may make the deal more problematic that it might otherwise have been.
