Liverpool are reportedly ready to offer Fernando Torres a £6 million annual contract to fight off the advances of Manchester City.
Torres was a target for City in the summer. And though he is happy at Liverpool, a new contract worth £120,000 a week is likely to be offered to the Spaniard to secure his future at the club, according to the Star.
Torres' agent, Jose Antonio Martini admits the striker is widely admired but is committed to winning trophies with Liverpool.
"Big European clubs are always asking about Torres, but he loves it at Liverpool and is keen to get fit to fight for the title and Champions League," said Martini.
The Anfied future of Robbie Keane, however, appears less settled. Mark Lawreson's candid admission that Steven Gerrard expects Keane to leave has only stoked rumours that the Irishman could be sold in January.
And now Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp has admitted he could seek to take Keane back to White Hart Lane.
“I like Robbie Keane. He’s a fantastic footballer,” Redknapp said. “There’s no doubt about that. Everyone’s got a value and, at £20 million, it was a lot of money.
“I thought it was good business. The chairman did good business getting that type of money for him. But, if they don’t want to sell him, that’s their business.
“He’s a Liverpool player. Until the day when they say he’s for sale, he’s part of their club.”
Tottenham are looking to sign a forward in the transfer window to complement Roman Pavlyuchenko, Darren Bent and Frazier Campbell.
