Juventus consider Benteke bid

Juventus are lining up a £20m move for Liverpool’s Christian Benteke, according to Talksport.

The Belgium international has struggled to recreate the form that earned him his big money move to Anfield last summer and he already looks to be heading for the exit door.

In thirty-five appearances in all competitions this season, the twenty-five year old has scored just eight goals while he has Daniel Sturridge and fellow Belgian Divock Origi ahead of him in the pecking order.

The Reds are keen on recouping at least half of the £32.5m they shelled out for the striker last summer and the Italian giants are willing to cough up just under two thirds of that amount.

Liverpool host Borussia Dortmund in the second leg of their Europa League quarter final on Thursday evening, and are can be backed at a price of 1/1 to qualify for the last four.
