Agent: Liverpool want to sign Napoli's Ezequiel Lavezzi

Argentine agent Jose Alberti says Napoli star Ezequiel Lavezzi could already be a Liverpool player.

And he reveals Liverpool remain keen on the attacking midfielder.

"Two years ago," said Alberti, "I oversaw a meeting between the leaders of Liverpool and Napoli. We discussed a possible deal to bring Lavezzi to England.

"Nothing happened, but I know specifically that the English club still has great interest in the player, especially after the performance of this season.

"I am of the opinion that if they fail to increase the contract of El Pocho, after this season we could see him go."

Nice to see you get mature discussion on here. What a *****.

George Arnold - you are wrong. I'm trying to leave Liverpool. It's full of lowlifes and people who steal hubcaps and washing machines. :'(

I am pretty sure it would be as the English premier league is the most prestigious league in the world. Being a Liverpool player would only enhance his reputation and make him more known world wide. This coming from a Man U fan.
