Liverpool are set for a sensational raid on Atletico Madrid for
striker Diego Forlan.
Sport says former Manchester United striker Forlan has
already agreed personal terms with Liverpool and will be sold by
Atletico in the summer.
The Madrid giants are reluctant to go lower than Forlan's
current £30 million buyout clause, but a deal for around £20
million could be settled if Liverpool include midfielder Lucas
Leiva in their offer.
Despite flopping at United, Forlan is regarded as among the
Spanish Liga's best strikers and is threatening Barcelona star
Samuel Eto'o for this season's Golden Boot.
