No truth to Clichy rumours

Don't believe everything you read in the papers!

The Daily Mail has regurgitated rumours that Gael Clichy is on his way from Manchester City to Liverpool on a free transfer.

The 31-year-old Frenchman's contract at the Etihad expires this summer and the paper claims Jurgen Klopp is keen to sign him for the Reds, with other nationals following suit.

But the Echo insists there is no truth to these reports and that, despite it being common knowledge that Jurgen Klopp is wanting to sign a new left-back, Clichy isn't a target.

Jame Milner stepped into the role well during this season but with a busier fixture list next term and the manager wanting more competition for places, its almost certain someone will be brought in.

Ryan Sessegnon is looking likely to opt for a move from Fulham to Spurs, while Manchester City are prepared to compete for the signature of Monaco's Benjamin Mendy.
