Liverpool Check Out Chivu As Clichy Heads To City

Liverpool are reportedly interested in signing Inter Milan defender Cristian Chivu.

The 30-year-old, who primarily plays as a left-back but can also play in central defence or even in midfield, has twelve months left on his existing deal at the San Siro.

According to the Daily Mirror citing reports in Italy, the Merseysiders are keen on the Romania international, but face competition from Valencia and Napoli.

Although Chivu is believed to be happy in Italy, his future is uncertain under new coach Gian Piero Gasperini and with only a year left on his contract, it is thought that he could be sold this summer if a new deal is not offered.

Liverpool are keen on signing a new left-back before the start of the new Premier League season and after missing out on Gael Clichy who is set to join Manchester City, Reds boss Kenny Dalglish has turned his attention to other possible targets.
