New Liverpool boss Roy Hodgson is weighing up a move for South Korean World Cup star Park Chu-Young.
The 25-year-old is an enormously popular figure in South Korea, having originally starred for the national under-20 side, during which time he was named Asian Young Footballer of the Year. The striker moved from FC Seoul to Monaco in 2008 and has not disappointed. His intelligent style means that he adds much more than merely goals to the team.
Park made a solitary appearance for South Korea in the 2006 World Cup, but played a prominent role in South Africa, scoring a goal against Nigeria.
According to the Sun, Liverpool is considering making a £6million bid to bring Park to Anfield. Hodgson is understood to have some money available for signings and with Yossi Benayoun having been sold last week to Chelsea, the Liverpool boss should have enough available cash to make an offer for Park.
Park scored eight goals and contributed two assists for Monaco last season and has netted fourteen times in 39 international matches.
