LIVERPOOL TRANSFER RUMOUR
Liverpool are being linked with a double swoop for Palermo's Amauri and Real Zaragoza's Gabriel Milito.
The Reds have held a long-term interest in the pair and reports suggest they could make a move for the duo in the summer.
Liverpool chief Rafa Benitez is busy planning for next season and he is set to be handed a substantial transfer kitty by American owners to Tom Hicks and George Gillett to build a team capable of challenging for the Premiership title.
Benitez is widely expected to bring in a new striker and Palermo's Brazilian-born hit-man Amauri could be one of his top targets.
Amauri's agent Mariano Grimaldi claims Benitez is a big admirer of Amauri, but says they could face a fight for his signature with a number of other clubs tracking him.
"Benitez is an admirer and considers him to be the best striker in Europe along with Didier Drogba," Grimaldi told The Sun.
"However, Liverpool are not the only ones after Amauri. There are offers coming from several clubs.
"But Liverpool have kept an eye on him for quite a while now."
Liverpool have been chasing Milito for some time and they failed in a bid to land him two seasons ago.
However, the Argentine international has opened the door for Liverpool to rekindle their interest in him by suggesting he would be interested in a switch to Anfield.
Reports emanating from Spain suggest Liverpool are ready to offer Mark Gonzalez plus money to try and persuade Zaragoza to do business for Milito.
"This is my opportunity to join a big club in Europe," Milito is quoted as saying in the Mirror.
"Liverpool have a Spanish coach, which is very important for me."
Rafa Benitez is also reportedly lining up a sensational £12 million raid on West Ham for striker Carlos Tevez even if the east London club avoid relegation from the Premiership.
The People newspaper claims that Tevez' business manager Kia Joorabchian met with Benitez in a London hotel at the weekend to discuss a move for the player.
Tevez has played a key role in West Ham's recent revival but the rumours coming out of the club are that the original deal has left far too many wounds for all concerned for the player to remain at the club next season even if relegation is avoided.
That position leaves the door open for potential suitors for Tevez with Liverpool leading the chase having already done a deal for Javier Mascherano earlier in the year.
Liverpool will be mindful of the mistakes in the original deal that led to West Ham's £5.5 million fine and will be making sure any new deal is entirely in line with Premier League rules.
Editor's Notes
These players are perhaps a handful of the many that Liverpool will be linked with as Rafa has been quoted in saying.
Rafa is one who is very meticulous not only when preparing for a match but also on the scouting for new players. Palermo's Amauri has been described as in the same mould to that of Didier DROPba only that he doesn't drop too easily.
But after the signing of Andriy Voronin, one would expect Rafa going for a big name this time round. Rumours have been circulating that it could perhaps be one of the three between David Villa, Fernando Torres or Carlos Tevez. And knowing Rafa, he will not be giving out any clues just yet. Barcelona has also been trying to tempt Liverpool to table an offer for Samuel Eto'o that will include pass-master Xabi Alonso in the mix but it has since been rejected by Rafa.
It has also been well documented that Rafa had previously tried to sign Argentine Gabriel Milito unsuccessfully over the last two campaign. And the fact that the player has shown interest would certainly re-trigger the speculation.
Should Liverpool be successful on the reported £12 million bid for Tevez and also the signing of Milito, we could see a team of Argentinian as the main cast come next season.
