Reds tracking Italian full-back
Liverpool are closing in on Italian left-back Andrea Dossena.
Reports suggest that the Reds have already opened talks with Udinese regarding the 26-year-old, who would command a fee of around £8m. With John Arne Riise heading for the Anfield exit door, Fabio Aurelio's injury troubles and 19-year-old Emiliano Insua short of first-team experience, Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez has identified Dossena as the cure for the problematic left-back position. Dossena is vying for a place in Italy's Euro 2008 squad and has one cap for the Azzuri. Liverpool are expected to snap-up right-back Phillip Degen on a free-transfer from Borussia Dortmund while a bid for Aston Villa's Gareth Barry has been made. Meanwhile, newspaper reports claim that Jermaine Pennant has been told to find himself a new club by Benitez meaning that he could join the likes of Riise, Peter Crouch and Andriy Voronin in leaving the club this summer. from rivals.net
