Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez hopes to raise transfer funds by selling fringe players this summer.

The Mirror says with the likes of Ryan Babel, Andrea Dossena, Andriy Voronin and Sebastian Leto all up for sale, Benitez could raise another £20m for his kitty.

And that will allow him to bid for Valencia winger David Silva, plus a top-class defender such as Portsmouth's England international Glen Johnson or Spain centre-back Raul Albiol.
