Warning: At least 86% of this article will turn out to be utter bullshit. But it’s good craic so on we go…
Remember Alex Song? Cameroonian defensive midfielder, brilliant for Arsenal, anonymous at Barcelona? Well, Brendan Rodgers clearly hasn’t forgotten about the 26-year-old as he’s being linked with Liverpool on Saturday morning.
With Lucas showing all the signs of wear and tear and the Reds in need of some shoring up, Song could be just the man to sit back with Steven Gerrard next season and stop the likes of Dwight Gayle and Kolo Touré from derailing yet another title bid, but Manchester United are also keeping an eye on the former Gunner. Either way his days at Barcelona must surely be up?
The Reds are also looking at bringing back Javier Mascherano from Barcelona (never gonna happen), Adam Lallana from Southampton (might just happen), Torino winger Alessio Cerci (like they need a winger) and Swansea defender Ashley Williams (ignoring the form book).
Inter Milan are looking at a loan bid for Fernando Torres and they also, inexplicably, have their eye on Tom Ince despite an anonymous loan spell at Crystal Palace.
Bacary Sagna will decide on his future after the World Cup, Livepool are chasing Swansea ‘keeper Michel Vorm, Jordan Henderson is set to sign a new four-year contract at Anfield and Arsene Wenger is being linked with the manager’s job at Monaco despite committing himself to Arsenal earlier this week.
