Newsflash: Morientes deal done

Last updated : 12 January 2005 By Adam Bryant
Real Madrid have agreed a £6.3m for the Spanish striker.

The player has signed a four-and-a-half year deal according to his agent.

Although he is cup-tied for the Champions League, having played in the competition for Real, Morientes will give Liverpool the firepower needed in the Premiership in the absence of the injured Djibril Cisse.
