Should Liverpool sell Xabi Alonso to Real Madrid, Rafa Benitez will aim to spend most of the money on David Silva.
Benitez is still desperate to hold on to Alonso, but recognises that the player wants to leave the club. Thus, he might have to accept a bid of around €35 million from Los Merengues.
According to The Daily Telegraph, if Madrid produce the cash, Benitez will accept the bid and then chase Silva. The pint-sized star has long been a favourite of Benitez's, and given his former Valencia connections, he believes he can convince Los Che to sell.
Real Madrid, Barcelona and Manchester United have all shown an interest in Silva in the past, while the player has previously stated that he would prefer to remain in Spain, if he had to leave Valencia.
It is believed that Benitez will use any remaining money to offer Javier Mascherano an improved deal, so that he does not lose both his holding midfielders.
if Alonso sell to RM and BEN buy Silva , good idea? or bad?
good and bad. we lose 1 distributer in the middle but gain a flamboyant winger.
Rafa definitely will sell Alonso...it's a waiting game only now for the price....
