Liverpool Reach Agreement to Sign Man United Striker Michael Owen This Summer
Anfield side ready to welcome back former hero as Kenny Dalglish looks to boost attacking options. Old Trafford striker looks to put injury nightmare behind him.
We can exclusively reveal that Liverpool have reached an agreement to sign Michael Owen this summer as Kenny Dalglish look to roll back the years and bring the 32 year old back to Anfield when his Old Trafford contract comes to an end this summer. The Merseyside club have struggled for goals this term and believe the addition of the experienced former England regular will help to offer them a back-up option to their first choice starters Luis Suarez and Andy Carroll.
Though Owen has been out of action with a thigh injury since November Liverpool have set their sights on the striker who netted 158 times for the club in his first spell between 1996 and 2004.
Speaking about his forthcoming emotional return Owen stated today, whilst at his stables,
“I can’t wait to get started. I feel I still have a couple of years in the tank whilst this has given me time to devote to my stables I am desperate to get going.
I’ve been told that the subs bench at Anfield is one of the best, had top level padding, heating controls and I’ll be given my own personal masseuse who will tend to my feet as I bed in for a lengthy spell sat comfortably in the best seat in the house.’
