Liverpool's senior players want Rafa Benitez to bring Newcastle
United striker Michael Owen back to Anfield.
The People says Owen spent eight glorious years at
Anfield scoring 118 goals in 216 games before leaving for Real
Madrid in an £8million deal five years ago. He moved to Newcastle
for £16m a year later.
The striker has been consistently overlooked by England boss
Fabio Capello who privately believes Newcastle hasn't been the
right environment for Owen.
Now, with no transfer fee to pay, top Liverpool players reckon
there's no reason NOT to move for Owen - especially as Benitez is
short on strike power to support Fernando Torres in attack.
Tottenham and Everton are both watching Owen's situation
closely. But if Benitez listens to his own dressing room
Liverpool's one-time goal-den boy could make a shock return to
Anfield.
