Liverpool have made a £5m bid for Arsenal left back Gael Clichy, according to the Guardian.
The Reds have been searching for a new left back recently and have previously made approaches for Newcastles Luis Enrique and celtic’s Emilio Izaguirre, but it seems Kenny Dalglish is now looking to snatch Frenchman Clichy away from the Gunners.
Clichy has stalled on signing a new contract at Arsenal and with only 1 year left on his current deal, Wenger may be forced into selling him in a cut price deal this summer instead of letting him leave for free next summer.
The Guardian reports:
“Liverpool have followed the £20m signing of Jordan Henderson with a £5m offer for the Arsenal left-back, Gaël Clichy.
The 25-year-old has been linked with a host of European clubs since the breakdown over his contract extension and been touted as a possible makeweight in several deals being pursued by Arsène Wenger. They are awaiting a response from Arsenal on their approach.”
