Rafael van der Vaart to Liverpool

Thursday, 08. 20. 2009  –  Category: La Liga, Liverpool, Premier League, Real Madrid

The Times is really scraping the bottom of the barrel with this one, even by their own admission: “…given that the Holland playmaker would cost about £10 million and Benítez has nearly exhausted his budget, there is little chance of a deal”. So no mention of sources and an admission that Liverpool don’t have the [...]

The Express seems to think that Villa are interested in Richard ‘Big Bum’ Dunne, as a replacement for the formerly excellent Martin Laursen.
