From Liverpool Echo STEVEN GERRARD and Jamie Carragher were expected to sign their new Liverpool contracts today. 隊長跟副隊可望在今天簽下新約 The Anfield duo agreed four year deals before the Champions League final, but the trip to Athens and international commitments delayed the formality of putting pen to paper. 兩位安菲爾德的支柱在冠軍杯決賽前就已經決定簽下新約，只是雅典之行延誤了紙上作業 With England heading to Estonia for their crucial Euro 2008 qualifier, the players and club are keen to tie up the formalities as soon as possible and intend using an opening in their diary this afternoon. 雖然兩人都要隨同英格蘭出戰Euro 2008 qualifier，但是俱樂部希望簽下越快越好 With negotiations to keep the Scouse duo concluded two weeks ago, manager Rafa Benitez was hoping to make progress on the futures of Pepe Reina and Xabi Alonso. Reina has indicated he will commit to the club and Benitez is also determined to retain Alonso, despite Barcelona’s interest. 兩個禮拜前就開始討論合約，接下來還有Pepe跟Xabi，雖然巴薩一直揮手(不可能) And he’s also planning key talks when he returns to England with Momo Sissoko. Benitez has no intention of allowing the African to move to Juventus for a paltry ￡10m, as widely reported over the weekend. 另外Momo貝帥也不想讓他走，雖然報導祖文出了10M Sissoko suffered a crisis of confidence towards the end of the season after a succession of horrific injuries, but at just 22, Benitez feels the midfielder is still potentially one of the best in Europe. 因為受傷的關係讓Momo的位置受到威脅，但他才22，仍然非常有潛力 Sissoko will be offered a new deal and if Juventus make a ￡10m bid as expected, they’ll be told to forget it. Momo會有新約，斑馬們請忘了他吧~ Benitez, who doesn’t return from holiday until the end of this week, is hoping for swift progress on a wide range of issues. Liverpool intend recruiting left winger Florent Malouda but are facing awkward negotiations with Lyon if the ￡8m switch is to proceed. 貝帥還在度假，紅軍正努力於Malouda的轉會，出了8M的價，但這還要看里昂黑店的臉色 Meanwhile, Benitez’s chief scout, Eduardo Macia, announced to the Spanish media over the weekend that Liverpool have ended their interest in Daniel Alves, who seems to be on the verge of joining Real Madrid in a ￡15m deal. 同時首席球探向西班牙媒體(可以信嘛?)表示利物浦已經對Alves沒有興趣，皇馬已經出了 15M的價，似乎已經獲得同意 Benitez would still love to sign Alves, but in the absence of any confirmation of how much is available, Liverpool are in no position to pursue such targets. 貝帥還是想要，但是這種價錢已經認為不值得 Benitez remains in close contact with club officials but while the Reds continue to be linked with stars such as Samuel Eto’o, there appears to be an ever growing gap between reality and fantasy. Eto'o還是目標，但是理想跟現實還是有差距 The suggestion Liverpool may have as much as ￡35m to bid for Eto’o – as one report suggested last week – would be heartily welcomed by the manager, but so far he’s been given no clue he has anything like this budget as his disposal. 老闆說35M也OK，但是還沒有跡象顯示會肯拿出這麼多錢 He’s more likely to spend the next few days assessing how to raise funds through sales rather than await the huge cheque many presumed available following the takeover. 可能還要花幾天做財政上的評估 35M for Eto'o?? 我覺得不值 --
