Liverpool are rumoured to be ready to pip Bolton to the capture of Oman keeper Ali Al-Habsi.

The 22-year-old has been tipped for greatness since his teenage years, with former Newcastle keeper John Burridge championing his cause way back in 2001.

Burridge was national goalkeeping coach in Oman and aided the youngster's development earlier in his career.

Al-Habsi has been with Norwegian side Lyn for the past two years and his performances have earned rave reviews.

He had trials with Manchester City and Bolton earlier this year and The Trotters have firmed their interest up with a bid in recent weeks.

Bolton's offer has been described as derisory by the Norwegian club, which could well allow Liverpool to sneak into pole position.

"There is no point even discussing it," Lyn director Morgan Andersen told VG of Bolton's offer. "The offer is terribly low, it is almost insulting our intelligence."

Lyn, though, are claiming that they have been approached by an agent representing Liverpool.

Reds boss Rafa Benitez is rumoured to be looking at strengthening his goalkeeping options, with the Spaniard said to be unconvinced by Chris Kirkland and Jerzy Dudek, and Al-Habsi could well have caught his eye.

"If the offer we have got is correct, it's certainly something we can consider," added Andersen.

Al-Habsi has struggled to earn a work permit in the past, but his agent said last month that Oman's improvement in recent years should allow him to secure the documentation required to play in The Premiership and a move could emerge in January.

Oman Keeper to Liverpool? My ******!!! What the hell do we want him for?

I have never heard anything about Oman, are they good team in international games in Arabic matches? Did Oman qualify for World Cup, no, so what the hell do we want him for?

Those rumour is absolutely bollox!!

I thought Scott Carson coming to Anfield.

[andy_g]

i agree with you that we maybe don't need this guy to come. but don't write off a player because of his country.

take george weah for example - did liberia get anywhere in international football? no.
would you have george weah in your time? i'd bite your bl.oody arm off for him!

[Stan Laurel]

Good point, mate.

Of course I would love to have him in Liverpool at the past but not today (only kidding, mate)

But George Weah used to be very well known in France, I used to remember him when he played for AS Monaco before he signed for AC Milan. French League used to be popular in late 80s when Chris Waddle played for Marseille, i used to watch French League on the telly when I was kid.

But I am asking you that have you heard of those Oman goalkeeper, I have never heard of him before and also I don't watch any of Norweigan League.

This must be a joke. Players from that part of the world never make it in European football. They are not good enough.
