Liverpool move to trump Chelsea for Bolton defender Cahill

Liverpool are making a late move to trump Chelsea for Bolton Wanderers defender Gary Cahill.

The Mirror says the highly-rated Bolton and England defender, 26, had been expected to join the Blues after a £7milllion transfer fee was agreed this week.

But the bid was threatened by a disagreement over personal terms and Kenny Dalglish is poised to swoop.

Cahill, who is out of contract this summer, is understood to prefer staying in the north.

Kop boss Dalglish is a big admirer of the centre-back who would compete for a place with Daniel Agger, Martin Skrtel and Jamie Carragher at Anfield.

No chance. Why would he move to Liverpool to play in the Europa League?

Cheer up Bin Dippers, we'll sell you Kolo Toure for £25 mill LOL

Agree, bakayoko..and the attacking system just got a bit weaker now that the idiot Suarez was found guilty of being a garbage human being! Thanks for being selfish and walking alone, dummy!
