According to reports on Sky Sports this evening, Italian side Palermo are interested in Liverpool midfielder Lucas Leiva.Lucas has failed to nail down a first team place at Anfield since joining in the summer, although he has impressed a large majority of the Reds fans.
Palermo have been alerted by the lack of first team football for the 21-year old at Anfield and are interested in bringing him to the Seire A although it is unlikely Reds boss Rafa Benitez will let him go.
I have to say I have been impressed by Lucas in his brief appearances for the Merseyside club. He is only young and I am sure he has a big future at the club, although he may grow frustrated at the current situation, ie, the amount of quality midfielder at the club, and decide to leave.
