Chelsea must pay premium for Yossi

Yossi Benayoun’s eagerness to leave Anfield will cost Chelsea £10M according to The Mail.

Rafa Benitez is reluctant to sell the player but with a meagre transfer fund at his disposal he will find it hard to resist the overtures to sell.  Especially with the player so keen on a move to Stamford Bridge.

Spartak Moscow are believed to have tabled a bid for £6M which the reds would prefer to accept – but Liverpool would be looking at a figure nearer £10M if they were to sell to another Premier League club.

Yossi has scored 21 times in 116 appearances with Liverpool since his £5M move from West Ham three years ago.
