据英国《卫报》12月23日报道，本周早些时候曼联俱乐部官员在伦敦同来访的斯巴达克俱乐部主席沙夫洛举行了会晤，就维蒂奇转会一事进行协商。与此同时，维蒂奇的经纪人同英超利物浦队的谈判也在紧锣密鼓地进行着。据悉莫斯科斯巴达克队为维蒂奇开出的价位在1100万英镑，而两家英超俱乐部目前只同意为维蒂奇转会支付不超过450万英镑的价钱。这个报价实际上和维蒂奇同斯巴达克俱乐部所签工作合同中买断条款所规定的数目相当。

    为了以防万一，利物浦队主教练贝尼特斯除了维蒂奇以外，还列出了其他一些候选人的名单，其中首选就是丹麦邦比队后卫丹尼尔·阿格尔。现年21岁的阿格尔现在是丹麦国家队的国脚，其转会价位大约在450万英镑左右，而利物浦俱乐部为贝尼特斯在冬季转会期准备的球员收购资金大约在1000万英镑，因此这样的价位对于贝尼特斯来讲应该是十分理想的。目前效力于西甲拉科鲁尼亚队的阿根廷后卫科洛西尼也是贝尼特斯考虑的一个人选，不过贝尼特斯顶多会为这名阿根廷人准备一份租借合同。

    据报道，贝尼特斯目前除了后防线之外，还希望能在冬季球员转会期再引进一名中场选手，以便加强球队右翼的攻防能力。目前效力于西甲马德里竞技队的“边缘”球员、阿根廷人加莱蒂已经进入了贝尼特斯的考察范围，不过据悉贝尼特斯希望引进加莱蒂的举动只是一个权宜之计。与此同时，利物浦俱乐部目前正在同有关部门积极接洽，希望能在新的一年里帮助目前效力于西班牙阿尔巴塞特队的智利边锋马克·冈萨雷斯拿到英国工作许可。据报道，此前利物浦队已经就租借智利人达成了协议，但由于冈萨雷斯所在的智利队在国际足联组织的世界排名中始终徘徊在70名之外，因此冈萨雷斯一直未能获得英国政府颁发的工作许可，双方的协议也只能一再被推迟。

    Liverpool are still hopeful of beating Manchester United to the signature of the Spartak Moscow defender Nemanja Vidic, though both Premiership clubs remain at odds with the Russians over a fee for the Serbia and Montenegro international.

    United officials met the Spartak president Sergey Shavlo in London earlier this week for negotiations over Vidic's proposed transfer, though agents acting on the player's behalf remain in talks with Liverpool. Spartak are understood to have quoted ?11m for the 25-year-old centre-half, though the English clubs are unlikely to offer more than ?4.5m.

    Vidic has a buy-out in his contract in Moscow at that amount entitling him to move, though the player would have to trigger the clause by asking for a transfer and agreeing to compensation for the remainder of his deal.

    Rafael Benítez has drawn up a list of other centre-halves should his pursuit of Vidic falter, with Brondby's Daniel Agger believed to be his principal target. The 21-year-old Denmark international would cost about ?4.5m, around half of the money likely to be granted to the Liverpool manager next month. The Argentinian defender Carlo Coloccini, currently at Deportivo la Coruna, will only be considered on loan. Benítez is similarly active in pursuit of a right-sided midfielder. Coloccini's compatriot Luciano Galletti, a fringe player at Atletico Madrid since joining last summer, is being considered only on a temporary basis.

    Liverpool are hoping that they will be granted a work permit for the Chilean winger Mark González in the new year now that they have struck a deal with Albacete. The original loan move was delayed by the Home Office after Chile were ranked two places outside Fifa's top 70.

    Charlton are trying to sign the Everton striker Marcus Bent for around ?1.5m although the 27-year-old has scored only twice in the last year. Wigan have signed the Austria international centre-back Paul Scharner for around ?2m.

    Fifa is to investigate Paolo Di Canio's alleged fascist salutes during Lazio's game with Livorno on December 11. It will determine the extent to which Di Canio's gestures may have violated the Fifa Code of Ethics, which came into force in 2004. Kilmarnock's striker Kris Boyd completed his move to Rangers last night. The deal is believed to be worth nearly ?500,000.
