Real Madrid Make Liverpool Target Available On Loan

Real Madrid will allow Esteban Granero to leave the Santiago Bernabeu on loan this month, with the midfielder a reported target for Liverpool.

The 25-year-old has made only five appearances for Real this season and is desperate for more regular first-team action.

According to SER Deportivos, Los Blancos are now offering Granero to potential suitors, with a view to a loan agreement for the remainder of the season.

Anfield has been touted as a possible destination for the Spaniard, with Kenny Dalglish reported to be considering reinforcing his midfield during the transfer window.

It was initially claimed that the Liverpool boss had identified Granero as a potential acquisition following a season-ending injury to Lucas Leiva and the prolonged absence of Steven Gerrard.

However, the Reds skipper has now returned to action and has already made his presence felt in the Liverpool midfield, so Dalglish may opt against any new recruits.
