Liverpool Exit Door Opening

LIVERPOOL FC could secure a £5million boost to their transfer kitty with the sale of French duo David Ngog and Chris Mavinga.

Striker Ngog’s proposed move to Sunderland fell through last month after he failed to agree personal terms.

The Black Cats subsequently signed Ipswich frontman Connor Wickham and their interest in Ngog has cooled.

However, Aston Villa and Fulham have both shown interest in the 22-year-old, who is keen to remain in the Premier League.

The Reds will hope to bank around £4million for Ngog, who has netted 19 goals in 94 appearances following his arrival from Paris St Germain three years ago.

Mavinga is also available following the end of his loan spell with Belgian outfit Racing Genk.

The 20-year-old defender was signed by Rafa Benitez in 2009 but failed to break into the first team.

He is currently with the France squad ahead of the Under-20 World Cup in Colombia later this month and would command a fee of around £1million.

Genk are keen to retain his services on a permanent basis, while reports in France suggest Rennes and Villarreal are also in the hunt to sign him.

Liverpool started pre-season training yesterday with first team coach Kevin Keen in his new role working alongside Kenny Dalglish and Steve Clarke.

MILAN JOVANOVIC is on his way out of Anfield with Olympiakos leading the chase for his signature.

The Serbian winger has been told he can leave Liverpool after a dismal first season following his arrival on a free transfer from Standard Liege last summer.

“I got the paper from Liverpool that I am free to search for a new club," Jovanovic said.

“Up to now, I still haven’t received an official offer from Olympiakos, but I am looking forward to hearing their plans."

Jovanovic scored twice in 13 starts for the Reds but looked woefully out of his depth in the Premier League.

The 30-year-old made just two appearances under Kenny Dalglish and Liverpool are keen to get him off their wage bill.

Reports in Greece suggest Olympiakos want to snap him up, while there’s also interest from Belgian sides Anderlecht and Club Brugge.
