Report: Maxi Rodriguez arrives in Liverpool for a medical

One of the biggest stars in Spanish La Liga Maxi Rodriguez arrived in Liverpool for a medical, before he completes his switch to The Reds. Twenty-Nine year old Atletico Madrid winger was a long-time target for Rafa Benitez, and will arrive at The Anfield for nearly 2 million pounds, while his price 2 years ago was in the region of 30 million.

Liverpool have extre free space in their team, following a departures of Andrea Dossena to Napoli and Andriy Voronin to Dynamo Moscow, but the Argentina international Maxi Rodriguez is a player of a much higher calibre than Dossena and Voronin. Maxi will watch Liverpool play Reading in a 3rd Round FA Cup replay, and will probably make his debut in the next fixture against Stoke City.
