According to reports in today's Daily Mirror, Aston Villa are preparing a £9 million bid for Liverpool striker Peter Crouch.Crouch has been linked with numerous amounts of exits from Anfield in recent months with several clubs including Newcastle and Man City also said to be interested in the England international.
Crouch has been at Liverpool for two and a half seasons now and he still hasn't managed to nail down a first team place under Rafa Benitez but many fans feel he deserves more of a chance.
I would not be at all surprised to see Crouch leave Liverpool in the summer and with the huge English contingent at Villa Park the 27-year old may bet tempted to move. I am sure a lot of Liverpool fans will be hoping to hold onto the six foot seven striker come the summer transfer window.
