Reds should sign forward, believes Reds icon

Liverpool legend John Aldridge has lavished praise on Aston Villa striker Christian Benteke, even going as far as to say the club should sign him.

The clubs are due to meet this weekend at Wembley for the FA Cup Semi-Final, and Aldridge reckons that the Reds need some extra firepower up front, and the Belgian fits the bill.

Sign Him Up

He told theLiverpool Echo: “Benteke is the danger. On his day, he’s a tremendous forward, a 20-goal a season man.

“I’d be happy if Liverpool got him in the summer, and they’ll need to be at their best to keep him quiet at Wembley.

“That means Skrtel, Can and probably Lovren at the back, and I’d also wonder whether Steven Gerrard might come straight back in to the side as well.”

Aldridge was at Liverpool from 1987 to 1989, scoring 50 goals in 83 league games.
