Liverpool Join Race For Midfielder

Liverpool has joined the race for Dijon midfielder Benjamin Corgnet, according to French sports daily L'Equipe.

The 24-year-old who was playing amateur football two years ago, has already attracted the interest of Lyon and Newcastle United, with the pair consistently linked with the midfielder.

But now Liverpool is taking a close interest in Corgnet and have had the Thionville native watched several times recently.

The Reds Director of Football Damien Comolli is well aware of the player's rise up the French football pyramid and has taken note of his impressive feats in Ligue 1 with newly promoted Dijon this season.

Corgnet has regularly been amongst the goals in the current campaign, notching seven in Ligue 1 from 18 games.
