Liverpool midfield pair Steven Gerrard and Xabi Alonso top the
shopping list of Florentino Perez.
Perez intends to stand for this year's presidential elections at
Real Madrid and plans to have the commitment of both Liverpool
stars before the ballot, says AS.
Xabi almost left Liverpool last summer for Juventus and Perez is
convinced he can make it third time lucky after twice almost
signing the midfielder during his previous reign as Real
president.
He knows Gerrard will prove a tougher task, but is determined to
test Liverpool's resolve for a player who Perez's team is convinced
can help rebuild Real's profile across Asia.
