Metro: LFC open talks for double deal Aug 29th 2013, 11:43 This story has been reproduced from today's media. It does not necessarily represent the position of Liverpool Football Club. Liverpool have opened talks with Sporting Lisbon over Tiago Ilori and Ajax for Toby Alderweireld as the club look to strengthen their defensive options. The Reds, who are already without the injured Martin Skrtel and Sebastian Coates, lost Kolo Toure to a groin problem this week and are short of centre back cover. But manager Brendan Rodgers hopes to rectify that with the double signing of Sporting ace Illori and Ajax hard man Alderweireld. Illori, a Portugal under-20 international, was born in London and is keen to try his hand in the Premier League after breaking through in Lisbon. Liverpool are believed to be ready to offer £6million for his services, and believe he would accept a switch to Anfield over the Spanish clubs who are tracking him. A deal for Alderweireld is more complicated, with Atletico Madrid and Roma both already in negotiations over a switch, but the player has admitted his desire to play for Liverpool before - and that could be key. Liverpool are expected to put in a £10million bid before the weekend, but consider PSG's Mamadou Sakho as another option if the transfer doesn't go ahead.
