Liverpool: Reds agree Garcia deal

Liverpool are believed to have agreed a deal to sign Barcelona winger Luis Garcia, according to reports emanating from Spain.

Spanish radio claims Barcelona have agreed to the sale of the Spanish international after signing Samuel Eto'o from Real Mallorca.

Liverpool were initially thought to be keen on taking Garcia on loan for the whole of next season, but reports claim they have agreed a 9 million euros (6 million) deal for the wide man.

Garcia's first team chances seem limited for the new season as Barca have been busy in the transfer market bringing in the likes of Deco and Ludovic Giuly at Camp Nou.

The 26-year-old did not train with Barcelona on Thursday and it is believed that the move could be announced as soon as Friday.

Garcia, 23, became the third player to arrive from La Liga this week alongside Real Madrid's Antonio Nunez and Xabi Alonso of Real Sociedad.

Long live the Spanish Revolution!!!
I'm sure he'll be a class signing and everyone is really excited about Alonso.

not sure if i remember correctly, i think garcia came on against celtic last season in the uefa cup as a sub and he looked good, fast player

am sure he will do good, and with benitez being in spain he will know him inside out

Liverpool new boy Luis Garcia has stated he had no qualms filling Michael Owen's shirt at Anfield and even requested wearing number ten.

The former Barcelona winger knows Owen had a special place in the supporters' hearts, but the added pressure of replacing the striker will not affect him.
