Once McClaren came a calling he couldn't refuse eh?
He'll be signing for Citeh for 50m in a couple of years now.
Any more on the radar KHL?

Well, here's some players on my radar at least..
Christian Eriksen, attacking midfielder, has really got loads of potential but he's probably going to take at least another year in Ajax. He's by far one of the biggest talents Denmarks has seen in the past 10 to 15 years. Not since the Laudrups has the hype been so immense. Youngest player at the WC.
Mathias Zanka could be a rather cheap-ish alternative for the CB positions should we need a young promising backup to Carra, Skrtel and Agger. He plays at Hodgsons old club FC Copenhagen so he's probably well aware of him. He's a big talented lad that's equally good on the floor as he is in the air.
Oscar Wendt - A classy and skillful Swedish LB. Good range of passing, good pace and good abilities overall.
And then there's another interesting name on the sky these days.
Kenneth Zohore. A gigantic 16-year-old striker with flair and power rarely seen. He's also playing at FC Copenhagen and has already made his firstteam debute. Not since Bendtners days has a player gone directly from the U16 to the U19 at International-level in Denmark.
There's a little interesting twist to these players from FC Copenhagen - even apart from the obvious Roy-connection - their current manager Ståle Solbakken, Norwegian, is a major Liverpool-fan.

Scored his first goal in the League for FC Copenhagen in the weekend. Still only 16-year-old:

He's still way short of Liverpool XI-class but the potential is there. He actually impressed me away to Barca last week too when he got the last 20 minutes or so. Big, strong and fast. According to his manager Ståle Solbakken he'll be better than Carew as he's got better technique although equally strong build. Could be one for the future but we should at least wait a year or two before an eventual attempt to snap him up.
