Liverpool to sign defender Degen
Liverpool have made their first transfer move of the summer, swooping for Borussia Dortmund's Philipp Degen on a free transfer.
The Switzerland international defender will move to Anfield on 1 July when his current deal with the German club ends.
The 25-year-old former Basel player will compete with Alvaro Arbeloa and Steve Finnan for the right-back berth.
"His strength is going forward," Anfield manager Rafael Benitez told Liverpool's website.
"He is an offensive player with great energy and a winning mentality.
"He also played in the Champions League during his time with Basel and so is used to top-level football."
Degen - whose twin brother David plays for Basel - has made 26 appearances for Switzerland since making his international debut in 2005.
He spent three seasons at Dortmund, making 70 appearances before opting to move to Anfield.
"When I received the offer from Liverpool, there was no doubt I would accept it," said Degen.
"They are one of the biggest clubs in the world and I am looking forward to the challenge of establishing myself there and playing in the best league there is."
I find this very disappointing. Ok he's a free transfer but who out ofthese three players is gonna hold down the right back slot?
I don't want to see morerotation next season, particularly at right back!作者: jclai 時間: 2008-5-20 06:46 PM
