Liverpool line up Alonso replacement

Friday, 17th July 2009 · Share on Facebook

Liverpool are set to lose Xabi Alonso to Real Madrid within the next few days and are targeting Roma midfielder Alberto Aquilani as a replacement.

Alonso is set to complete his move to the Spanish giants at the start of next week, according to AS.

If reports are to be believed, the Spanish international will join Real Madrid for £32.7million + add-ons.

Rafa Benitez has sent agent and his personal friend Frank Trimboli to Italy to discuss a move with Roma for Italian midfielder Alberto Aquilani.

“We need to be open and listen to any type of offers that are proposed to us,” Roma manager Luciano Spalletti said.

“We are not worried, we know what we need to do.

“There will probably be two or three transfer market deals done and I am convinced we will be able to work well.”

    Alonso y do u want to dispoint the club dat made u wat u are today.pool brough,t u get u more chances to play only for u to be in your peak and wants to dump the club who made u wat u are. Y not remain for just one seasom after we have won the epl then u can go like a hero which fan will never forget u.

    Still sounds like Propaganda 2 me…

    But on the flipside, somthin round 35mil is a gud price for a player that`s gettn old.

    Alonso should although remain since he`s a vital part of the team. U can buy a new player but u can never garantee that he will settle in perfectly and quickly

    Do it…Him and Silva for Xabi should be a definite yes

    Xabi is great, but he’s getting older, and two player with as much quality as Alberto and Silva are worth it.

    because he can play winger or striker…so essentially we could use him as back up for torres or gerrard, plus have another option on the wing. That and he is just a quality player

    if u sell alonso or mascherano… sell higher price 5o-70million… n buy good player samet type like zapater (spain), javi martinez (spain), sneijer, m.diarra and l.diarra (real madrid), xavi (barcelona)..

    i don’t think lucas can replace alonso or mascherano’s role… lucas must leran and learn to improve…

    oh .. liverpool have darby (full back)…very talented… don’t forget, nemeth,hammil,mikel,atwi… i hope his can on liverpool first team forever..

    alonso can go….but he’ll be back in the EPL just lyk the rest of them who leave pool for madrid…Micheal Owen, Steve McManaman….good players who murdered their game in spain. The worst thing and the funny thing is that if we play Madrid agai this season…we’ll kick they asses
