Reds enter Spanish ace race Mon, Nov 21 2005 10:42
Liverpool are the latest Premiership side to be linked with a January transfer window swoop for Deportivo La Caruna defender Cesar.
The 28-year-old Spanish international centre-half is in the final year of his contract at the Riazor and is set to be offloaded by the Primera Liga side in the new year in order for them to recoup some money before he can leave on a Bosman free transfer next summer.
Newcastle and Tottenham have already been linked with the player, who has expressed a desire to remain in his homeland, but would not rule out a move abroad if the right club came in for him.
He said: "My priority would be to stay in the Spanish league. But, like any professional, I cannot close any doors.
"I am sure that if any firm offers arrive than I will look at them."
Reds boss Rafa Benitez would surely hold an advantage over any other interested parties given the fact they can offer European football and the large Spanish contingent already based at Anfield.
There is no-one anywhere in the world at any stage who is any bigger or any better than this football club.
