How old is he? Must be getting on a bit by now. If we need a new defender, must make sure that person has pace, otherwise it would not be a real strengthening move...

The price-tag indicated, by both German newspapers and Skysports, of about £4M seems fair too. He has got one year left on his contract so BM seeks to offload him now, in order to avoid him leaving as Bosman next summer. A forcefull and fast compgnion for Hyypia, at a reasonable price.. I would say go for it  :)

Rafa Benitez's Liverpool could be set to enter the race for Bayern Munich's wantaway defender Sammy Kuffour, according to reports in the German media. The Ghana international has just a year left on his current contract at The Olympic Stadium and has already been made available for transfer by new Bayern coach Felix Magath. Interest from Juventus, Olympiakos and Hamburg has so far failed to result in a bid, but Liverpool could now be ready to swoop. Kuffour, who has dropped behind Lucio, Thomas Linke, Martin Demichelis and Andreas Gorlitz in the pecking order, is desperate to find a new club and he could find salvation in the shape of Liverpool. Benitez is looking to bolster his defensive options, even though he has already added Spaniard Josemi this summer. Sami Hyypia and Stephane Henchoz are the only recognised centre backs in the first team squad at present, although Jamie Carragher, Igor Biscan and Josemi can all fill in if needed. The 27-year-old Kuffour could now represent the perfect addition for Liverpool who have been linked with moves for the likes of Fabricio Coloccini, Michael Dawson and Roberto Ayala over the past few weeks. Bayern would want around €6 million (£4 million) for Kuffour, who came through the youth ranks at the club.

He is 28 years old and is good player, very strong and can score quite a few goals.
But I don't hear much about him for a while.

The price does sound fairly reasonable and he would add a lot of  experience. Also there must be at least one African footballer who can be a success at Anfield :D

If we`re to sign Koffour and even he ain`t no success, maybe it would be time to focus on another continent :)

I think it's only speculation, but I don't think Kuffour will join Liverpool.

Kaffour is bobbins. Just not good enough for Liverpool.
