Liverpool ready to cash in on Johnson

Liverpool are ready to sell Glen Johnson.

The Daily Star says Johnson looks set to quit Liverpool in January as France defender Rod Fanni gets ready to reject boyhood club Marseille so he can replace him at Anfield.

England defender Johnson remains poised to leave next month following manager Roy Hodgson's recent criticism of him, even though the duo have since tried to play down the row.

Tottenham, Bayern Munich and Juventus have all been linked with Johnson and Liverpool have already targeted Rennes right-back Fanni as a replacement.

Marseille also want to sign the pacy 29-year-old and Rennes are trying to use that interest to drive up the asking price to £4m.
