Liverpool to make move for Steven Caulker?

Liverpool are ready to plunder relegated Cardiff City's squad and sign talented centre back Steven Caulker this summer. The Anfield side are apparently ready to sell Kolo Toure and bring in some new blood to join the likes of Martin Skrtel and Daniel Agger amongst Brendan Rodgers' defensive options.

Steven Caulker has performed valiently this year at the Welsh side since making a move from Tottenham Hotspur last summer and is now expected to move elsewhere to play Premier League football.

Liverpool have been monitoring Caulker closely for over two months and are set to make a bid in the coming weeks.

Yesterday Liverpool made an official offer to Southampton for winger Adam Lallana and it is understood that a move for Caulker is part of Brendan Rodgers' long term vision for Liverpool to improve on their excellent second place position in the top flight this season just finished.
