Liverpool have joined Real Madrid, Chelsea and Manchester City in the race to sign Inter Milan defender, Maicon, according to his agent Antonio Caliendo. "I heard from Maicon today [Monday] and we have to see what happens in the next few days with Real Madrid," Caliendo told Tuttomercatoweb.com.

"Liverpool are also interested in the player, as are Chelsea and Manchester City. It's down to Maicon to make choices. He wants to stay now that [Zlatan] Ibrahimovic is staying."

"Will Inter sell him for the right money? You will have to ask president [Massimo] Moratti this question," concluded the agent.
