Konchesky Close To Liverpool Move

Fulham defender Paul Konchesky is expected to join Roy Hodgson at Anfield before the transfer window closes at the end of the month, according to FansFC. Konchesky missed his sides opening game of the season against Bolton, with Mark Hughes insisting the player was not fit enough to participate. However, former Fulham boss Hodgson is a keen admirer of the full-back and is looking to strengthen the Reds in that position. Daniel Agger played at left-back for Liverpool against Arsenal on Sunday, but Hodgson wants a natural full-back to take that role and provide stern competition for the injury-prone Fabio Aurelio who also missed out on this weeks action.
