Liverpool look to be favourites for £10 million midfielder ahead of Chelsea

The England international has long been linked with an exit from Villa Park in recent months following his break through into the England first team.
Chelsea are also said to be monitoring Barry's current situation at Villa Park although it is thought that Barry would prefer a move North.
Barry, 27, has supposedly said that he wants to play at the highest level and wants to experience European football on a regular basis. He has been with Villa for his whole career and I am sure no Villa fan wants to see him leave.
I personally think Barry is very capable of playing in European competitions and I do feel Liverpool may be the club he ends up with. He is a terrific passer of the ball and reads the game very well and I think £10 million would be a fair price for the player.
