Liverpool have made a £7.5million bid for Fulham star Clint Dempsey.Dempsey has already told Fulham boss Martin Jol he wants to move to Anfield this summer, but the club are sticking to their valuation of around £10 million and are refusing to budge.New Anfield chief Brendan Rodgers revealed on Monday that he hopes to have two new faces on board before the Reds fly to America for their pre-season tour.
It seems certain that Rodgers will make a big effort to entice 29-year-old United States international attacking midfielder, Dempsey, to the Merseyside outfit and he is expected to return with an improved offer.Fulham boss Martin Jol had been hopeful of keeping Dempsey at Craven Cottage after he enjoyed a productive season with the Londoners, bagging an impressive 17 Premier League goals.However, with the player's contract running down, an offer in the region of £9 million would be far too good to rebuff and it will also enable the Dutch tactician to bring in reinforcements to his squad.
