• Argentina captain keen to link up with Rafael Benítez again • Mascherano has spent three years at Anfield Javier Mascherano’s agent has stated he is in talks with Internazionale over a possible move which would see the Liverpool midfielder reunited with his former manager, Rafael Benítez. Mascherano, who was heavily linked with a move to Barcelona last summer, has spent the past three years at Anfield but contract negotiations have been put on hold and one of his agents, Marco Piccioli, claims the 25-year-old may very well follow in the former manager’s footsteps. “There has already been a first contact with director Marco Branca,” Piccioli told www.Itasportpress.it. “We are evaluating the move hard and in the next few days we will have a new meeting to better establish the details of this transfer deal.” Mascherano, who has two years left on his deal at Liverpool, revealed this week he is learning Italian. And the Argentina captain at World Cup 2010 admitted this month he would relish the opportunity to link up with the Spaniard again. “Would I follow Benítez? I don’t know,” he said with a shrug. “At the moment I really know little about my future. But of course with Benítez at Liverpool I experienced three incredible years. His football is my football.” Liverpool Internazionale Transfer window World Cup 2010 guardian.co.uk
