Liverpool weighing bid for Dann

Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish is considering bids for both Blackpool's Charlie Adam and Birmingham's Scott Dann.

The Scot has already splashed the cash with  £16 million on Sunderland's Jordan Henderson, and is expected to make a formal offer of £9 million to Blackpool for Adam.
However, according to reports in the Daily Mail, the Liverpool manager is keen to continue bolstering his defence, and considering a move for Birmingham's Dann, who is a childhood fan of the Anfield club.
Dalglish had previously been disappointed in his bid for Phil Jones, and has now turned his attention to Dann after the Englishman decided to sign for archrivals Manchester United instead.
However, Liverpool will have to fight off the attentions of Arsenal as well, with manager Arsene Wenger also keen on the player, as well as Blackburn Rover's Christopher Samba in an attempt to add heft and power to the Gunners.
Despite having a love for Liverpool, Dann is reported to be more keen on Champions League football with Arsenal, and this could prove a stumbling block that Dalglish cannot surmount.
However, should Arsenal snap up their man, Liverpool could extract some form of revenge by poaching Gunner Gael Clichy, who has been linked to the club after having only one year left on his current deal with the North London club.
