  Ex-Man Utd star Van Nistelrooy wanted by Liverpool

  

  
  

  Liverpool are set to launch a January bid for Real Madrid striker Ruud van Nistelrooy.

  The Sunday Mirror says Van Nistelrooy is being lined up for a New Year move to Liverpool.

  The Dutch striker is surplus to requirements at Real Madrid as he recovers from the latest of a series of injuries that have limited him to four appearances this season.

  Anfield boss Rafa Benitez is looking at the possibility of taking the former Manchester United striker on loan until the end of the season as he aims to add firepower to his team.

  Van Nistelrooy, 33, is also attracting interest from Tottenham and Manchester City as he nears fitness following a thigh problem.

  But he would prefer a move to Anfield because he believes Liverpool will still be fighting for the Premier League title at the end of the season – and that would help him secure a place in Holland’s World Cup squad.

  Man City also wants him?

  They're nuts. What they really need right now are some good defenders.

  If they can secure his service, it would be an asset to Liverpool, provided Ah Ben can start using his 20 million italian.

  Or else no point getting another striker.

  For Ngog, you cannot expect a Lion to come out from a Cat.

  That is what the fans are expecting from some of the players.

  The truth is that they are already trying their best and their best is not good to win.

  That is what I have learned from the present squad.
