Argentine defender may move from Banfield to Anfield
Liverpool are pondering making a move for Argentine Youth International defender Gabriel Paletta. The 19 year old was a key part of the Argentine team who won the World Youth Championships earlier this year. If the Reds are to make a bid the fee would be in the region of £3 million for the youngster who currently plays in Argentina for Banfield.
Paletta may not require a work permit due to the European roots of his ancestors. He would also have the advantage of not being cup-tied for the Champions League.
There is no doubt we will be signing a central defender in the transfer window. The only question is who will it be? A talented youngster would be the most likely option as initially the defender will be providing cover for Sami and Carra.

I am starting to think that we are going to see more players arrive that just the RW and CB Rafa wanted in the summer.
Perhaps it is wishful thinking... although I am not one continually calling for replacement personnel.
It is just that I imagine Rafa wants these two + a couple of others that he would have planned to have brought in at this juncture.
Simao?
Agger?
Paletta?
Vidic?
could Joaquin be coming aswell?
and Kuyt?
...could be interesting
and Gonzalez has his work permit, doesn't he?
could it be - this season's purchases XI (well.. almost):
------kuyt crouch
-gonzalez simao joaquin
--------sissoko
agger vidic paletta X
---------reina
