Liverpool to lose full back but have £25million trio lined up !
Liverpool look set to lose Norwegian full back John Arne Riise according to The Sun today, however reports also suggest that he will be used as a part exchange for £12 million rated Gareth Barry.
The 27 year old signed for Liverpool in 2001 from Monaco for £4 million and has since made over 230 appearances for the Reds but it appears now as though fans are getting restless after several below par performances this season, highlighted especially by his own goal against Chelsea.
Gareth Barry has been used as a left full on several occasions for Villa but it is unlikely that if Rafa was to get him he would play him there. So, Barcelona defender Eric Abidal and Borussia Dortmund's Philip Degen are two other options for the Spaniard to mull over
