Sisoko - A very good prospect. One of Rafas boys, if well accepted in the squad and well settled in the new environment, he will go on to be an excellent signing. Very good battler for the ball, does not give up. Very hungry and a lot to prove.

Everton near Valencia raid


Everton are closing in on a deal to sign Mohamed Sissoko and Emiliano Moretti after David Moyes travelled for transfer talks with the Valencia duo.

Moyes left the club's training camp in Austria on Thursday and was believed to be on his way to Amsterdam to meet the pair for talks on Friday.

And Sissoko's agent has said his client is on the brink of joining Everton after dismissing claims of a late attempt by Liverpool to hijack the £8m double deal.

The Mali international is expected to arrive in Merseyside within the next few days to undergo a medical before sealing his part of the transfer.

"The transfer of Sissoko to Everton is practically finalised," agent Jose Segui told the Daily Post. "There are only some small details to resolve and then the medical of the player."

Of interest from Anfield, he added: "Liverpool and Benitez have asked about the player's situation in the past, but have not made a proposition."

Moyes is also hoping that he has also persuaded Italian left-back Moretti to follow Sissoko to Goodison.

who should we hear to??teamtalk or skysports
let wait 4 news in e next few days

[Fernando Morientes > 19 <]

I also prefer to wait for the news to be official on Liverpoolfc.tv although i believe that SkySports.Com might be right.

[MSj.]

he has signed....just said on skysports news!

[Red_Rob]

Yeah Rafa was just interviewed said he is 'high energy center mid which will balance midfield' (paraphrasing there).

Also said that still another 2-3 to come and also there are other right winger targets other than Figo...

[liamac]

Other right wingers , nice mind play going on there  i think.
He is more or less saying to Real  give us Figo or the deal collapses because we have other players in mind also  and you  slimey toe rags will be dishing out 5 million quid for warming a bench up for the year

The man is as cool as mustard  

[Red_Rob]

I think you are right, you could see in his eyes that he doesn't want to be messed around by Real- Lets hope it works out 

[7_Kewell]

Teamtalk...more like craptalk!

he's our player, good move for a 20 yr old....bring on Figo, Milto and Kyute (is that the spelling?)

SkySports.Com just confirmed signing of Sissoko:

Liverpool have completed their swoop for Valencia midfielder Mohamed Sissoko.

The Mali international had looked like joining Everton for the past few weeks, but The Reds have nipped in to gazump their Merseyside rivals.

Rafa Benitez signed the 20-year-old for Valencia from French side Auxerre and obviously believes he can be a useful addition to his European champions.

Liverpool are believed to have paid €8 million for the powerful African, who has signed a four-year deal at Anfield.

Benitez's troops had their first run-out since lifting the UEFA Champions League in Istanbul on Saturday in the friendly at Wrexham.

The Spaniard revealed after the game that the club had completed the capture of Sissoko, and believed he would be a good new recruit.

"We have signed Momo Sissoko," Benitez told Sky Sports News.

"He's a centre midfielder who is very, very good, he has a high energy level and is always working.

"He's also not bad with the ball and he can give us a balance in the middle."

Benitez is to continue bolstering his squad for the coming season and revealed that he wanted to add to or three more new faces in the next week.

Despite Sissoko's arrival, Benitez says he is still hoping to sign Luis Figo, but the matter remains in the hands of Real Madrid.

"It is possibility but at the moment it's in the hands of Real Madrid," he added.

"We have a number of possibilities and Figo is one of them we are trying to get.

"We hope to sign two or three more players. I think we are better than last season."

just as i thought at the end of last season, Moyes iscrap at signing big players.  He's fine bringing them in from Millwall or other lower league sides but hasn't a clue when it comes to VAalencia, Newcastle, Chelski....

i can't wait for Moyes to panic and blow his cash on another Beatie
