City and Barca battle for Liverpool star !!!

Liverpool midfielder Javier Mascherano is reportedly attracting the interests of both Manchester City and Barcelona according to the people. The player who is on loan at Anfield has today been linked with a £16 million move to high flying City. Barca have been interested in the player for some time and they are likely to launch a similar bid.

Liverpool have a whole host of centre midfield players in Gerrard, Alonso, Sissoko, Leiva and Mascherano and the player may leave soon if the club don't make a decision as to the his future.

The Argentine has impressed since joining Liverpool from West Ham but it is surprising that Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez is taking so long to decide wheter to buy him or not.

Mascherano is a quality player and it is no surprise clubs like Barcelona and Man City are expressing an interest in him. City boss Sven Goran Eriksson has apparently made a new midfielder and a new striker his top priority's in January and Mascherano would be a brilliant signing. It will be very interesting to see how this rumour develops.
