Memphis Depay could be creeping closer to a move to Anfield - as reports in Holland indicate the PSV Eindhoven forward has spoken to Liverpool and NOT Manchester United.

The striker, who scored his 21 league goal of the season with a free-kick against Rotterdam yesterday, denied he'd spoken to Manchester United after the 3-2 win - and the Dutch press report that he has, however, spoken with Liverpool.

Asked if he had spoken with Louis van Gaal's team, Depay said: "No.

"I know nothing myself so I have nothing to say. Otherwise I wouldn't say this.

"Of course I'm looking at beautiful leagues. And then it's always nice if clubs are interested. But I don't want to say anything about that.

"We'll see how things go."

Reports in The Metro claim that Liverpool are going to propose a swap deal for Aston Villa's Christian Benteke - with Rickie Lambert going in the other direction.

But before you think Liverpool have pulled off the deal of the century, it would still take £30m to prise the Belgian from Villa Park, according to the report.

Benteke scored as Villa beat Liverpool in the FA Cup and they had previously tried to sign Lambert in the January transfer window, but that was under old boss Paul Lambert.

New manager Tim Sherwood has helped Benteke rediscover his goalscoring touch, and he's now notched 12 goals in all competitions this season.

And finally, James Milner could be closing in on a move to Anfield if reports this morning can be believed.

The Manchester City midfielder is out of contract at the end of the season and Brendan Rodgers has long been linked with a move for the player.

Well apparently that deal is now done with an "Anfield source" telling newspapers that the move was sealed and the Reds have beaten Roma and Arsenal to the England man's signature.

The Reds are also linked with City striker Stevan Jovetic in the report, a player who was a target for ex-Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez back in 2009.
