Liverpool Football Club are delighted to announce the signing of Rickie Lambert from Southampton.
The striker, who was on the club's books as a youth player, has put pen to paper on a deal with the Reds after passing a medical at Melwood.
Moments after signing, the boyhood Liverpool fan said: "I can't believe it. I've loved this club all my life. I left here 17 years ago - and I haven't stopped loving it since.
"I have always dreamt of playing for Liverpool, but I did kind of think the chance of playing for them had gone. I didn't think the chance would come.
"I know how big Liverpool are - and it means everything to me - but I know what is important; I know it's what I do on the pitch and the minutes I play. I know that's what matters, and that's what I'll be focused on."
Lambert arrives from Southampton where he scored an impressive 117 goals in 235 appearances.
He has four caps for England and is part of Roy Hodgson's World Cup finals squad, alongside new club mates Steven Gerrard, Jordan Henderson, Glen Johnson, Daniel Sturridge and Raheem Sterling.

I like his intelligence and movement and think he will contribute positively next season. Would much rather have him coming on instead of aspas or Sturridge coming on to replace him...
Hopefully the first of a few good ones.
