Kop To Pounce For Knockdown Price Wright-Phillips

Shaun Wright-Phillips is a £5million January target for Roy Hodgson.

Hodgson is due to meet new Liverpool owner John W Henry before Thursday’s Europa League clash with Napoli to discuss his January shopping list.

Wright-Phillips figures highly on the Liverpool boss’ list of targets and he feels the England winger could add some creativity to the Reds midfield.

Wright-Phillips, 29, would be available for a knockdown fee from Manchester City because he is in the final year of his contract at Eastlands.

Contract talks with City have stalled and Wright-Phillips would be prepared to leave City a second time because he has been dropped to the bench by Roberto Mancini.

Liverpool have been interested in Wright-Phillips before and Rafa Benitez wanted to buy him in 2005.
