Liverpool Transfer News: Steven Jovetic £17m Bid Coming
The 22-year-old Montenegro international is top of Brendan Rodgers' most wanted list.
According to Italian source Corriere dello Sport, Liverpool are set to make a £17 million bid for Fiorentina attacker Steven Jovetic. The 22-year-old Montenegro international is top of Brendan Rodgers' most wanted list as he tries to make an instant impact at the club he is now managing. Rodgers wants Jovetic to improve Liverpools attacking threat, something that let them down considerably last year. Jovetic could also be seen as a partner for Luis Saurez, after the Uruguayan managed to carry the team as a result of Andy Carroll struggling in front of goal. Steven Jovetic has made a name for himself for Fiorentina after scoring 14 goals in his 27 appearances for the club last season. Liverpool are desperate for an inform striker as the season draws ever nearer. Rodgers is no doubt unhappy at not been able to secure Gylfi Sigurdsson who chose Spurs over joining Anfield this week. Liverpool arent the only club interested in the player with big spenders Chelsea also challenging for Jovetic's signature.
