Aly CissokhoWhilst none of his summer transfers have been mind-blowing (thus far), Brendan Rodgers has gone about his business with quiet efficiency.

The man has a clear understanding of where the weaknesses in his squad lie and has attempted to redress them one-by-one in the transfer market.

Some fans may desire a marquee signing, or a big name to join Liverpool’s list of completed transfers (perhaps somebody like Diego Costa?) But this is looking increasingly unlikely to happen.

Still, Liverpool are set to start next season with a much stronger, better rounded squad than they finished the last one with. Brendan Rodgers may well rest assured that the weaknesses in his squad will not be exploited quite so brutally from now on.

It with this in mind, that we should consider the following story. According to Spanish reports (via The Star), Liverpool have agreed to sign Aly Cissokho on a one-year loan deal. Brendan Rodgers will then have the option to make the deal permanent should that be his wish.

This kind of deal is perfect for the Reds at this stage of their evolution. As Liverpool only have to pay Cissokho’s wages for a year, they’re limiting the risk that they are taking on board. If he is a wild success, however, Liverpool will be able to snap him up with relative ease.

The only thing that’s difficult to understand is why his current club Valencia would be willing to let him go out on loan.

Cissokho has been linked to numerous Premier League clubs on numerous different occasions. It’s about time he finally got his move.

The man is perfectly suited to play his football in Britain. He combines pace, power and energy in one neat little package. When it comes to his defensive duties, he won’t get bullied and when it comes to going forward he has the ability to cause plenty of problems for the opposition.

The 25-year-old is about to enter the peak stage of his footballing career. The time’s right for Liverpool to swoop in and snap him up. It’s not like the club has anything to lose by making this deal happen.

He’d be yet another signing that will give Liverpool fans good cheer with the new season fast approaching.

What’s your take? Will Aly Cissokho be a good addition to this Liverpool side?
