Liverpool Transfer News: Reds Prepare Kevin Mirallas £10 Million Bid
Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers is preparing a move for Olympiakos forward Kevin Mirallas.
the Daily Star. The 24-year-old, who last season was a target of Arsenal and Newcastle United, is a versatile attacker who can play up front or out wide on either wing and he would cure two weakness areas in the Anfield squad after Dirk Kuyt leaving this summer and the likely exits of Maxi Rodriguez, Andy Carroll and Craig Bellamy to follow. Mirallas scored an impressive 20 league goals in 25 matches last season and is the goal-getter that Liverpool badly needed last season. It is reportedly believed that the Belgian international wants a move to a bigger league and would be interested in a move to England. He could be available for £10 million, a cheaper option for a quality player than those found in the Premier League and Europe's big leagues. The Liege born forward is a former Lille and Saint-Etienne star and moved to Greece in 2010, winning two back-to-back domestic titles and finishing last season as the top scorer in the Greek Super League.
