Christian Poulsen of Denmark
The club confirmed the signing earlier, saying:
Liverpool FC are delighted to confirm the signing of Christian Poulsen after the midfielder put pen to paper on a three-year deal.
The 30-year-old, who has been capped 77 times by Denmark, arrives from Italian giants Juventus and will wear the No.28 shirt.
Poulsen has previously worked with Roy Hodgson at FC Copenhagen, where he was given his first big break by the current Reds boss.
Welcome to the Club, Christian. We’re all sure you can do a job for us – make that number 28 shirt your own.
i don’t know why,but i really don’t belive that this signing is made…
Methinks this is a bit tongue-in-cheek. Just wonder why they don’t sign David James, Graham Alexander and Dennis Bergkamp….maybe even bring King Kenny out of retirement. This is gettimg ridiculous…
sarcastic, but funny…
Why didnt we go after someone youthful like Flamini
