Souleymane Bamba? Hibernian defender Souleymane Bamba claims Liverpool are monitoring his progress in the SPL, along with French duo Lorient and Grenoble. Rafael Benitez has already aquired the services of full back Glen Johnson, while Greek defender Sotiris Kyrgiakos has recently just put pen to paper on a 2 year contract, arriving from Greek club AEK Athens. However with injuries to Daniel Agger and Martin Skrtel, aswell as the departures of Alvaro Arbeloa and Sami Hypia, Rafa has been left short of cover in the defensive area. Throughout the summer many defenders have been linked with Anfield to help fill the void and Ivorian International Souleymane Bamba is the latest name to be mentioned. Bamba has previously played for PSG aswell as Dunfermline before joining his current club Hibernian in 2008 where he has established himself as a key member in John Hughes' side. If Rafa does opt to move for the 24 year old Ivorian is still remain to be seen as at this monent in time no firm offer has come to fruition.
