Rodgers remains in the market to add to his attacking options – having had a £21million bid for Diego Costa rejected by Atlético Madrid. “I am confident that we will add to the team,” he said. “We are looking for someone top left with pace and who can score goals.” Rodgers said that there was “strong interest” in Stewart Downing with West Ham United having bid £6million for the England international and Newcastle United also in the running. Rodgers is hoping to bolster his squad with the imminent signing of Granada left-back Guilherme Siqueira which would raise doubts over the future of Jose Enrique. Siqueira, a Brazilian with Italian citizenship, is keen to quit Granada, who he joined three years ago from their parent club, the Serie A outfit Udinese, and the 27-year-old is thought to be available for around £8million although Liverpool would hope to pay less.
