Liverpool make Mascherano request
By Simon Austin


Mascherano has played for West Ham and Corinthians since July
Liverpool have sent a letter to Fifa asking for special dispensation to sign Argentine midfielder Javier Mascherano on loan from West Ham.

Under Fifa regulations, Mascherano, 22, cannot play for another club this season because he has already represented Corinthians and West Ham.

But Liverpool hope Mascherano will be allowed to complete a move to Anfield.

A Fifa spokesman told BBC Sport that the "player status department" was currently considering the matter.

Mascherano arrived at Upton Park with international team-mate Carlos Tevez on 31 August.

But he has played only six minutes since the defeat at Tottenham on 22 October and is desperate to leave the club

But under the world governing body's rules, a footballer cannot play competitively for more than two different clubs between 1 July and 30 June the following year.

Something else of my own thoughts, ok Rafa is intersted in him, however do we need him, well he make a difference to the team?

Not like me to miss the opportunity to slate someone for starting a shi.tty thread....

However on topic, how can you not be intrested in a player of his quality ?

If he was available on the open market, he would cost a minimum of £10m.
