Guardian: Reds confident on Williams Apr 12th 2013, 07:56 This story has been reproduced from today's media. It does not necessarily represent the position of Liverpool Football Club. Liverpool believe they are in pole position to sign Ashley Williams from Swansea City this summer despite the prospect of a bidding war with Arsenal. Arsenal, it can be revealed, had a £9m offer for the Wales captain rejected by the League Cup winners in January. They are expected to return with a higher bid at the end of the season as Arsène Wenger seeks an established leader for his central defence but Liverpool, despite the threat of failing to qualify for Europe next season, are confident of luring Williams to Anfield. One factor is Brendan Rodgers, under whom Williams worked happily for two years at Swansea. The defender was also a boyhood Liverpool fan - John Barnes was his favourite player - and the Anfield club believe he would favour a move to Merseyside over Arsenal.
