| Quote: |  Parry admits Liverpool want Owen
Liverpool chief executive Rick Parry has finally admitted they do want to bring Michael Owen back to Anfield.
Boss Rafael Benitez has been low-key on constant speculation linking the England striker with a return from Real Madrid after only 12 months.
Newcastle have agreed a club record deal of about £17m, but 25-year-old Owen prefers a move back to Liverpool.
"It's not a no or a yes - there has been plenty of speculation and we will see next week," said Parry.
And Parry is pleased that Owen has publicly stated his preference for a move to Liverpool, despite Newcastle's determined efforts to do a deal.
He said: "We are always encouraged when players say they want to join Liverpool."
And Parry also dismissed suggestions a deal was being inspired from inside Liverpool's boardroom rather than by manager Benitez.
He said: "I want to stress there has never been a split between us or Rafa about Michael or any other players."
Liverpool, having sold Milan Baros to Aston Villa for £6.5m, may attempt to make room for Owen by selling Djibril Cisse, with both Monaco and Marseille interested.
Newcastle had hoped to persuade Owen to sign, but he made it clear he only wanted to join on loan - if Liverpool did not make a move.
Chairman Freddy Shepherd gave Owen a deadline of Thursday to agree to move, but it appears he is doomed to failure.
"There is not much more we can do. We are waiting to hear from Owen and his adviser," Shepherd explained.
"But it has to happen today or it's not going to happen at all, and we will be speaking to Michael's people."
BBC Sport understands Liverpool are not willing to pay more than the £8m Real splashed out to land Owen last summer.
They are expected to reveal their hand after Friday's Super Cup game with CSKA Moscow on Friday but the player would have to take a pay cut to persuade Liverpool to do business.  |

It was a bad move to go. He left for Madrid to win, now he missed out on a CL title. IDIOT! I say go someplace, even if it is Anfield. |

Reds In Double Swoop
| Quote: | Liverpool have swooped to bring in two players just before the deadline in the form of Austrian winger Besian Idrizaj and Welsh Under-21 striker Ramon Calliste.
Idrizaj is 17 and is Austria's current young player of the year, and has signed a two-year deal with the European Champions after recently enjoyed a trial spell at Melwood.
The boyhood Liverpool fan is an attacking midfield and has signed from Linzer ASK in the Austrian league.
Idrizaj is delighted with the move and said: "I have always been a Liverpool fan and it is a dream come true to play for them.
"If you get a chance to go to Liverpool on trial then you have to take it. You cannot ingore a trial with the reigning Champions League winners. I would even have swam across the channel just to take part."
Striker Ramon Calliste, 19, is a Wales Under-21 international and he has signed a one-year deal with Liverpool. He was released by Manchester United at the end of last season and impressed Liverpool during his recent trial spell. Calliste scored for the reserves against Newcastle last week.
Both players are included in the Liverpool Reserve team squad for the match against West Bromwich Albion at the Hawthorns on Tuesday night. |
I cant say i know to much about these players but they sound good.  |

| Quote: | Goal.com Exclusive! Helguera Heading For Anfield
10/17/2005 6:37:00 PM
Goal.com has learned from sources on Merseyside that Liverpool have verbally agreed a deal for Real Madrid defender Ivan Helguera to move to Anfield when his contract expires at the end of June.
Helguera is understood not to be seeking a new deal at the Bernabeu, but will instead pursue his career in the English Premiership under former Valencia manager Rafael Benitez |
Don't Madrid need defenders though?[/quote] |
