Boro Quote Liverpool £3m For Keeper

Middlesbrough wants a staggering £3 million for Australian keeper Brad Jones - after turning down a bid for half of that figure from Liverpool.

Boro supremo Steve Gibson is holding out for the massive sum despite the surprise move from the Kop, first revealed by Football Spy.

Jones is willing to move to Anfield and cover for keeper Pepe Reina but the deal is now in jeopardy as Liverpool does not want to spend so much on a number two.

Liverpool could now go back for Reading's Adam Federeci after cooling on a move for him because of his inflated valuation too.

Hi, GS has stated that he would rather keep Brad Jones, so the inflated price is a reflection of that. But if Liverpool do stump up the cash then that would allow GS to finish his summer shopping spree and still leave money to replace Jones (with Speroni)
