Bit by bit, they begin to assemble the pieces for the next season. It is said that Rafael Benitez's team, which finished third in the Premier League, intends to try to acquire London's right back Shaun Wright-Phillips.
A quick and technical right back like Wright-Phillips could cost Liverpool around 14 million pounds sterling. It is worth noting that last summer, Chelsea paid a third more, a sum of 21 million pounds, for the English club.
However, the 24-year-old footballer failed to establish himself in the London team and played only 17 games in the starting lineup in the Premier League, unable to score any goals.
Meanwhile, Liverpool has been looking for a player to fill the gap on the right side for some time. Initially, the main candidates were considered to be the right backs Simao and Joaquin, but negotiations with them have not been successful so far.
This season, in this position, Steven Gerrard, who likes to play in attacking midfield, and striker Djibril Cisse, were most often played on the right side. By the way, it is Cisse who could be sold in order to raise funds for the acquisition of S. Wright-Phillips.
