Fernando Llorente is a £20 million target for Liverpool’s Kenny Dalglish according to continuing reports in English Sunday newspaper, The People.

The paper suggest Dalglish is about to swoop as the 6′ 5″ forward has become disillusioned with the club following an indifferent start to the season under eccentric coach, Marcelo ‘el loco’ Bielsa.

However, it seems the basis of these claims are vague to say the least.

The tabloid point to the fact that Liverpool already have some Spanish players at the club and that their big-money signing Andy Carroll has flopped – not really the strongest suggestion of an impending move for the much lauded Llorente, who has been at the club since he was 11-years-old.

In truth, Athletic fans have little to worry about.

The club are renowned for a distinct lack of activity during the mid-season transfer window, and are also loath to let their talismanic striker go.
