Now Reds Keen On Cahill

Liverpool are the latest club said to be keen on Bolton defender Gary Cahill and are reportedly prepared to pay up to £17m for him.

Cahill has been attracting attention from several top Premier League sides this summer with Arsenal strongly linked with a move for the England international.

However, no deal has been agreed between the Trotters and the Gunners and now the latest reports suggest Liverpool is ready to offer in the region of £15m for the 25-year-old in a bid to lure him to Anfield.

Bolton boss Owen Coyle does not want to lose Cahill but knows every player has his price and is thought to be prepared to let the centre-back leave if he receives a suitable offer.

Whether £15-17m is enough for a deal to go through remains to be seen but interest in Cahill is only likely to increase with the transfer window closing at the end of the month.

Liverpool have spent big this summer already on the likes of Charlie Adam, Stewart Downing and Jordan Henderson but Reds boss Kenny Dalglish has indicated he would be prepared to splash the cash further and has been on the lookout for defensive reinforcements.
