Liverpool plot shock swoop for Fernando Torres

Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers is reportedly considering a shock return for Fernando Torres, according to The Star.

The Spain international joined AC Milan on a two-year loan deal from Chelsea over the summer.

Recent reports have revealed that the Rossoneri are considering terminating the player's contract and this could force the Blues into offloading the 30-year-old during the New Year.

According to The Star, Rodgers is thought to be keen on signing the talented striker for a second spell at the club in the winter transfer window.

Torres has made nine appearances for Milan this season.
