Shock deadline day bid for Winston Reid
Liverpool will offer West Ham United £6.5m for centre back Winston Reid, reports the Daily Mirror. That’s despite the player’s contract expiring in the summer, when he would be available for nothing.
Reid recently rejected a new four-year deal to extend his stay at Upton Park, but the Hammers have so far maintained that the New Zealand international would remain with them until at least the end of the season.
The Reds are willing to meet West Ham’s valuation of the 26-year-old in order to force through the move, and would rather sign him now than wait another six months.
