Liverpool Lining Up Udinese's Armero

Kenny Dalglish is checking on Udinese’s exciting left-back Pablo Armero.

The Liverpool boss is desperate to land a left-sided defender, having been forced to play rookie Jack Robinson in the key position in Sunday’s draw with Arsenal.

And he has sent scouts to rustle up reports on Armero after hearing impressive things about the 24-year-old Colombian.

The 14-cap star only joined Udinese from Palmeiras last summer, but his pace and ability to deliver crosses have prompted Liverpool’s interest.

Dalglish is also keen on clinching a deal for Newcastle’s Jose Enrique.

He has made obtaining a left-back a summer priority after deciding Paul Konchesky was not up to Liverpool’s standards.

Teenager Robinson is viewed as a potential first team star, but the club wants to give him time to develop.
