Italian Ace eyed by Rafa!

Atfer my Kuyt fiasco to toon...here is another one.

Liverpool are monitoring the progress of Serie B hot shot Daniele Cacia, according to reports in Italy.

Cacia currently plays for Piacenza and netted 19 times in 37 Serie B appearances last season.

His exploits caught the attention of Fiorentina and Palermo, with the Viola seemingly lining up the 22-year-old as a replacement for Luca Toni.

But with Toni opting to stay at Fiorentina, the club have cooled their interest in a player valued in the €8 million (£5.5 million) category by Piacenza.

Palermo have made an offer for Cacia, but their bid of €3 million (£2 million), plus a player in exchange, was dismissed.

Liverpool, meanwhile, are reported to be keeping tabs on the hit-man, who is tipped to make an impact at a higher level.

Though Rafa Benitez has not followed up any tentative interest, reports in Italy claim he is waiting to see if Piacenza lower their asking price.

Hmmm... we are actually lacking in the Italian department.

Surely not for the first team though.

we are buying everyone a couple of threads along we are buying some greek guy

We seem to be buying everyone in sight at the moment!
I just hope these players are quality, and not just bodies!!!
But I am certainly impressed with Rafa's go get 'em attitude. The man seems to be on a mission, and that mission is surely to bring no. 19 home.
