Liverpool Target Flying Winger Milos Krasic Alongside Best Mate Jovanovic


A rreport in The Independent this morning claims Liverpool are favourites to sign highly-rated CSKA Moscow winger Milos Krasic along with his Serbian international team mate Milan Jovanovic .

Krasic is out of contract at the Russian giants and has been linked with a number of Premier League clubs alongside Liverpool, including Manchester City.

Milos Krasic, 25, is predominantly a right-sided attacking midfielder who has been compared to Pavel Nedved. The Serbian international starred for CSKA in 2009, scoring 13 goals and providing eight assists in 33 appearances.

Sam Wallace in the Independent reports that Liverpool believe they have the upper hand on signing Krasic because of his close friendship with Jovanovic. They are international team mates and lived together when the Standard Liege striker was at Lokomotiv Moscow.

Milan Jovanovic’s agent claimed earlier this week that the deal to join Liverpool was done and that the 28-year-old striker would be joining from Standard Liege on a free transfer in the summer.

However, Liverpool boss Benitez said at the Emirates last night: "I just want to talk about the game. There are a lot of rumours in the press but we are still working and we will say something if we finalise it."
