Liverpool to offer £14M for Chelsea's Wright-Phillips


Liverpool are set to make a major £14 million bid for Chelsea winger Shaun Wright-Phillips.
The Mirror says Reds' boss Rafael Benitez hopes to lure the speedy right-winger back to the North West this summer in a deal which would equal the £14m Liverpool paid for Djibril Cisse last year.
Chelsea are thought to be willing to cut their losses on the player - yet to score for them - for around £7m less than they paid. But they will not let Wright-Phillips leave on loan.
