Premier League giants
Liverpool are willing to sell midfielder Javier Mascherano to
Italian champions Inter, according to a report in the
Mirror.
The Argentine international has been heavily linked with a move to
the European champions, who are now coached by former Liverpool
manager Rafael Benitez. Mascherano himself is said to be ready to
take the leap to Italy and it's now been reported that Liverpool
are willing to listen to offers from Inter.
It has been reported that Mascherano's agent Walter Tamer has been
to Milan to open talks with Inter, although the Nerazzurri have not
made any announcement on this issue. Liverpool want around
£30million for the former West Ham United midfielder but Inter are
not prepared to pay more than £20 million.
However, with the 26-year-old refusing to commit his future to
Liverpool, the Merseyside club may have to take a step back in this
deal.
