Liverpool target Oman goalkeeper
16:48 January, 4, 2005
Liverpool are set to launch a bid for Ali Al-Habsi.
The 22-year-old is regarded as one of the best young goalkeepers around, and was widely expected to join Bolton Wanderers from Norwegian club Lyn.
However, Lyn director Morgan Andersen has described Bolton’s offer for the stopper as ‘insulting’, opening the way for a move elsewhere.
"There is no point even discussing it," Andersen told VG of Bolton's offer. "The offer is terribly low, it is almost insulting our intelligence."
Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez is on the lookout for a new number one, and is believed to be weighing up a move for the Oman international during the January transfer window.
