Villarreal Among Trio In Chase For Liverpool Defender

Liverpool defender Chris Mavinga will be allowed to leave the club for around £750,000 - with Rennes and Villarreal the latest to express an interest.

Mavinga moved to Genk on a six-month loan deal back in December and talkSPORT last month revealed how the Belgian club was keen on making a permanent move for him.

The France Under-20 starlet has failed to break into the Liverpool senior team following his arrival in 2010 and Kenny Dalglish is open to selling him so he can forge a career elsewhere.

And there is no shortage of takers for the 20-year-old, with Rennes eager to join Genk and speak to Liverpool about him.

Spanish side Villarreal are also willing to make an official bid, with Mavinga keen to leave Anfield.
