Liverpool Transfers: 10 Players Who Could Replace Raheem Sterling

3. Pedro Rodriguez - Barcelona

What a coup for Liverpool this would be. If the tabloids are to be believed, Barcelona are willing to sell Pedro for just £7m this summer due to his contract at the Nou Camp entering its final year.

The forward has won it all throughout his career with Barcelona and Spain, namely five La Liga titles, two Champions League titles, the 2010 World Cup and the 2012 European Championships, and at 27 years of age is still firmly within his prime.

Brendan Rodgers was disappointed to have missed out on Alexis Sanchez last summer to add to his forward line and the Chilean€™s former team-mate, who has scored 114 goals in 365 games, would be a more than effective surrogate.

Suited to playing anywhere across the front line, Pedro also has the artistry and craft to play in the number ten role and is fully capable of filling Sterling€™s void. In fact, the Spaniard is arguably a far superior option to the wantaway winger.

Due to his undoubted ability, there will be a long queue for his services, with Arsenal and Chelsea both linked, and Liverpool€™s failure to qualify for next seasons Champions League could cost them dearly in the race for the Barca star.
