Liverpool Face Battle For Stade Brest Striker

Liverpool face a battle with Sochaux and Lille for striker Nolan Roux.

talkSPORT recently revealed Liverpool were keen on the French forward, with Kenny Dalglish committed to overhauling his squad this summer.

Stade Brest has received enquiries for Roux and the club is planning to cash in on the £7million-rated star - with Liverpool the most keen.

But talkSPORT understands French sides Sochaux and Lille are also eager to speak to Brest about the possibility of signing the 23-year-old.

Lille are losing striker Gervinho to Arsenal and the club are already planning for his departure by scouring the market for a replacement.

It all means Dalglish will have to move quickly to sign his target and although Brest have not received an official bid yet, interest from elsewhere may force him into action.
