KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Juventus in Liverpool approach

Juventus have made an informal approach to Liverpool regarding the availability of Dirk Kuyt.

The Italian giants are interested in signing the Dutchman in the summer to deploy him in his natural position as a striker - at Anfield he's playing as a' make-do' right-sided winger.

Rafa Benitez isn't interested in selling the 28-year-old but every player has a price and a sale could help finance a move for Wigan's Antonio Valencia.

We're big fans of Dirk and we wouldn't to see him moved on.

any idea what they are willing to pay?

If its true there are willing to part with 30 million or even close! I'm sorry but its by by (sell sell) Kuyt

im not sure i would let him go for 30mill right now ...... with shitty spending so much we would not be able to replace him with any real quality for that price .... every price has hiked up since they made their bid for kaka ...... but i know i would trust rafa's judgement on the matter over parrys

I read somewhere £10m

personally i'd rather have kuy than valencia. At least that way we know we have a player that will give 100% every game. i doubt valencia would do that

Why would you want to sell one of our key players? His play, although he doesn't score loads of goals, usually sets up wins for us. He is the hardest working player in the Premier League and this work ethic helps our central and front players do what they do best. Don't forget the amount of tracking back he does in a game to support the defence. Don't under estimate the benifit of this to the amount fo goals we conceed.

Noway even considering selling him even for 30 million , he is a key player in our XI , his work rate is simply magnificent also selling him would disturb our 1st team selection even more and more at this crucial time of the season as he is a permanent figure in our 1st team

I'd bite there hands off for £18-£20 million. Give Anderson or Hammill a chance.

i agree - we have anderson and hammill as well as el zhar for this position ...... though i would rather see kuyt moved inside and keep him
