The Times are reporting that Liverpool Director of Football Damien Comolli is looking to resurrect his interest in St Etienne holding midfield player Blaise Matuidi. Comolli worked with Matuidi in his previous position as Sporting Director at St Etienne and is keen to re-unite with the player at Anfield. According to the paper, the Reds are ready to move for the 23 year old French international but only after they have hopefully secured a certain striker signing in the next few days. Matuidi has been described as a combative defensive midfielder as well as a deep-lying playmaker.
This week it is former Liverpool WAG Joanna Taylor!

Comolli has already publicly stated that he gave his word of honour not to try to sign players from St Etienne this year. Therefore I’m very sceptical about this story.
comolli is rick parry in disguise. Faffing around and not offering any serious bids for quality players like adam and suarez. £12.7m for suarez?! If thats true and if i was working for ajax id tell him to stop wasting my time!
Pity that as this guy is quite a tricky footballer by all accounts! Of course by “this year” he might have been referring to 2010 – smile!
is it just me or does anybody else think we are missing out on a bargain, namely sulley muntari for £6m?
I have the same thoughts Steve. He is even being considered for a loan before a sale in the summer.
