The Reds are rumoured to have put in a bid for Serbian centre back
Nemanja Vidic.

The story first broke in Norway from generally very reliable sources
and has now been covered in the echo as well. see below

Reds in £4.5m swoop for Serb Nov 25 2005

EXCLUSIVE by Chris Bascombe, Liverpool Echo

LIVERPOOL have bid £4.5m for Serbian international defender Nemanja
Vidic.

Rafa Benitez hopes to secure the signing of a centre-half by next
week, but there remain some obstacles to overcome for Vidic to move
from Spar-tak Moscow to Merseyside.

Italian club Fiorentina are rivals for the defender's services, and
Benitez won't maintain his interest if he senses indecision from the
player.

Vidic is one of several defenders who've been in Liverpool's sights
all season and today's move doesn't necessarily signal the end of
the Reds' search.

Benitez hopes his offer will give him permission to speak to the 24-
year-old before deciding whether to press ahead with his purchase.

In the meantime, Benitez is also maintaining an interest in other
long-term targets.

It's understood Vidic has a clause in his contract which will allow
him to talk to the Reds for an offer of £4.5m.

But the Liverpool boss needs to be convinced Vidic is 100% committed
to joining the European champions, otherwise he'll look elsewhere.

Vidic excelled during the recent World Cup qualifying campaign when
Serbia and Montenegro finished above Spain in their group.

He's been linked with Arsenal and Aston Villa in the past, but
Fiorentina are the only other club to have made an offer to his
Russian club.

Liverpool have made no secret of their desire to recruit a new
centre-back, with Sami Hyypia and Jamie Carragher currently the only
senior central defenders at the club.

Not necessarily great on the pitch but I've added in a great picture
of the team that season to the season archive.

As the picture was also so big I've made a wallpaper out of it if
anyone wants to adorn their screen with it.
