Liverpool to make fresh approach for Schalke enforcer Kyriakos Papadopoulos

Liverpool to make fresh approach for Schalke enforcer Kyriakos Papadopoulos


LIVERPOOL look set to launch a fresh offer for Schalke star Kyriakos Papadopoulos.
Kyriakos Papadopoulos is a target for Liverpool
The Anfield side have been heavily linked with a move to the Premier League side, and his return to fitness could see a flurry of activity to try and secure his services.
Reds Boss Brendan Rodgers is a huge fan of the Greek star, although the Reds have been reluctant to pay the £13m Schalke wanted.
Liverpool are keen to try and land the 21-year-old on a season long loan, with a guaranteed fee of around £12m being mooted if the Greek star can stay injury free.
Papadopoulos was able to make just 10 appearances, down from 29 in 2011, with his long absence caused by the need for a knee operation in November to help deal with a persistent injury.

A national newspaper claims Schalke want to settle for an upfront cash deal but know they will have to compromise over a deal because of the player's long-term injury problems.
Schalke sporting director Horst Heldt revealed the club's stance on Papadopoulos' future, saying they were willing to speak to Liverpool if they launch a bid for Papadopoulos.
He said: "There are a lot of clubs to take into account.
"We're going to speak to each other when it takes concrete form.
