Transfer News: Liverpool FC Line Up Antonio Cassano as Suarez Replacement


Liverpool FC are interested in a move for Inter Milan striker and Italian international Antonio Cassano but only if Luis Suarez leaves for Bayern Munich or any other top European club.
The Bundesliga leaders have been repeatedly linked with Suarez and Pep Guardiola, who takes charge of the Bavarians at the end of the season, is keen to have him in board.

Italy international Cassano could be available after allegedly having a training ground bust-up with manager Andrea Stramaccioni. The 30 year old only made the switch from AC Milan just months ago and could already be on his way out.

Cassano was dropped for this weekend’s 3-2 win at Catania although he could be recalled for Thursday’s Europa League match with Tottenham at White Hart Lane.

Sources in Italy say Liverpool are interested although they will try everything in their powers to keep Suarez at Anfield.

If he is to be sold, however, the Merseysiders will expect to make a comfortable profit on the £22million they paid Ajax for his goalscoring prowess in January 2011.

He has scored six goals in his last three games and his hat-trick at Wigan on Saturday has taken his tally this term to 28.
