Monday was another light day on the transfer news and rumors front, but we still do have some
top clubs looking to make reinforcements before time runs out.
Defense is still the order of the day, as a few Premier League clubs are in the market for
additions at the back, while a couple of top European clubs are looking to add some quality on the
flanks.
According to The Sun, Liverpool dispatched scouts to check on Fernando Amorebieta in Athletic
Bilbao's 2-1 defeat to Barcelona in the first leg of the Supercopa de Espana on Sunday.
The Reds are reportedly keen to bolster their defensive options following a defeat at the hands of
Tottenham Hotspur in their opening league fixture, and the 24-year-old appears to be well-placed on
manager Rafael Benitez's shortlist.
Liverpool are eyeing Dynamo Kiev's Pape Diakhate and Athletic Bilbao's Fernando Amorebieta as Rafa
Benitez searches for a centre-back.
Benitez has injury concerns at the back with Daniel Agger currently on the sidelines while Jamie
Carragher and Martin Skrtel both required treatment after the pair were involved in an accidental
collision in the Reds' 2-1 defeat at Spurs on Sunday.
