Ed002 - I've been told Liverpool failed with a £23m bid for icardi on Transfer deadline day. Rejected due to Inter by having enough time to find a replacement.

Also the mirror reporting Daniel NHSturridge is ready to quit LFC in the summer? This true? (Fingers crossed)

{Ed002's Note - Inter's Mauro Icardi has been subject to sustained interest from Atletico Madrid and Chelsea, with Arsenal continuing to watch the player. He was very much Chelsea's first choice striking addition for the summer of 2015 but he eventually signed a new deal with Inter - a contract that is in his favour unlike the one he had previously. It was very unlikley, regardless of a number of difficulties there were with the player, that they would look to sell in January unless they were to receive a very, very good offer, but they did have a replacement in mind in Embolo, in addition to Calleri who they were negotiating over. However, Inter did need to raise money for purchases and were actively looking at players with Piero Ausilio attending two games in London and holding discussions with Chelsea over another player, offloading Icardi in January would potentially have given them two or three of their desired targets. The asking price for Icardi was €40M and they were firm on that but they say that they received no offers at all in January. They will now wait as they are looking at possibly changing manager in the summer which may settle the player – else, they will sell to raise funds.

I don't know what Sturridge wants in the summer - I gave my views on him previously and you should be able to find that in the October or November archives.}
