Wigan midfielder James McCarthy is edging closer to a move to Liverpool when the summer transfer
window opens for business according to Chairman Dave Whelan.
McCarthy has been in impressive form for the Latics since his £1.2million move from Hamilton
Academical in 2009.
The 20-year-old has been on the radar of Kop boss Kenny Dalglish and Liverpool's director of
football Damien Comolli for the past few months now an a move is looking likely to be on the cards.
Liverpool is closing in on making James McCarthy their first summer signing after the midfielder
told Wigan Athletic he has his heart set on a move to Anfield, Goal.com can reveal.
Kenny Dalglish is a huge admirer of the 20-year-old and the Reds are believed to be willing to
spend as much as £10 million to land one of the brightest prospects in the Premier League.
Liverpool FC have officially named Kenny Dalglish as their permanent manager after giving the
Scotsman a three year contract. Kop legend Dalglish was temporarily given the reigns after Roy
Hodgson's horror start to the season and has brought a turnaround in their fortunes that has seen
Liverpool move up the table and compete with Tottenham [.

Having missed the season opener due to a thigh strain, Bornstein made his first start for Tigres
on Saturday as the club defeated Necaxa 1-0.
