Inter Still In The Hunt For Liverpool Midfielder Javier Mascherano

Inter could still snap up Liverpool midfielder Javier Mascherano this summer, according to tuttomercatoweb.

The Argentina captain had been linked with a move to the treble winners after Rafael Benitez was appointed coach at San Siro, but the speculation had died down recently as Barcelona seemed to be on the verge of signing the 26-year-old.

However, Blaugrana sporting director Andoni Zubizarreta recently denied reports that the club has reached an agreement to acquire the former Corinthians man.

With the midfielder seemingly unlikely to leave for the Camp Nou, Benitez could still link up with one of his favourites in Serie A.

Mascherano has excelled at Liverpool since his arrival in 2007, making nearly 140 appearances for the club.
