Liverpool Planning Surprise Swansea Raid For Nathan Dyer

Liverpool are believed to be preparing to make a shock bid for Swansea City's Nathan Dyer after the winger's impressive performances in recent weeks caught the attention of manager Kenny Dalglish.

Dyer, 23, has been one of the star players during Swansea's impressive start to their first season in the Premier League and Reds boss Dalglish apparently sees the young wideman as exactly what he is looking for to complement his existing squad.

Dalglish signed Stewart Downing from Aston Villa in the summer and the England man has been a top performer on the left, while fellow new recruits Jordan Henderson and Charlie Adam have been regulars in the centre.

But the Liverpool boss is reported to be keen on bringing balance to Liverpool's team with pace and width on the right and he has identified Dyer as the man to offer that.

The Scot has personally scouted the player already this season and saw him up close when Swansea earned a 0-0 draw at Anfield earlier this month.

Dyer was again impressive as the Swans lost narrowly at home to Manchester United on Saturday.

However, Dalglish may have to move quickly if he is to secure his services, with both Everton and Newcastle also said to be keen on making a bid.
