Benitez is reportedly interested in signing Newcastle United's attacking midfielder, James Milner. Liverpool are ready to shell upto £10M for the England international.

The Spanish boss is also interested in Espanyol's Alber Riera who might also cost in the region of £10M. Riera is currently un-settled at his club, although Liverpool doesn't have enough money to spend on two players.
