Grant claims Liverpool Cole interest





West Ham boss Avram Grant has admitted there was late interest from Liverpool in Carlton Cole.

The Hammers squad looks much the same as it did at the start of the day but there was plenty of talk regarding potential additions and outgoings.

Liverpool were linked with a £9m bid for Cole, with Ryan Babel reportedly offered in return.

Grant told Sky Sports News: “I think Liverpool were interested (in Cole) at the last moment, they tried to do something. I don’t think it was an offer.

“(Babel) was one of the suggestions to do or not to do.”

Grant said there was no Tottenham move for key midfielder Scott Parker and also hinted he had attempted to bring in Spurs striker Robbie Keane.

“Parker? Nothing as far as I know. They know we want Scott Parker. He’s very important for us. This season is difficult but we have a project for the next seasons and Scott is very important.

“Robbie Keane is a good striker. Any time he wants to come he is welcome.”
