Byline: By JOHN CROSS

LIVERPOOL boss Rafael Benitez has tried to snatch snatch

removal of a newborn animal from the dam before it has an opportunity to suck. The objective is to rear it independently and free of colostrum-borne infection or of colostral antibodies.
 Fulham midfielder Steed Malbranque Steed Malbranque (born January 6 1980 in Mouscron, Belgium) is a Belgian-born French footballer, currently playing for Tottenham Hotspur. Lyon
He was a trainee at Lyon between the years of 1995-97 during which time he won the Under-15 championship twice, the Under-17 Cup
 from Manchester City's grasp.

Malbranque, 26, has turned down a new pounds 40,000-a-week contract which has forced Fulham boss Chris Coleman Chris Coleman is the name of several people, including:
  • Chris Coleman (footballer), a Welsh former football player and then manager;
  • Chris Coleman (politician), Minnesota politician and (as of 2006) mayor of the state's capital city of Saint Paul;
 to listen to offers as the Frenchman only has 12 months left on his current deal.

It is understood that Liverpool - who tried to get Malbranque two years ago - and City have both made enquiries and have begun negotiations.

City boss Stuart Pearce has also tried to sign Malbranque in the last two transfer windows and is hopeful he can get him on the cheap.

Liverpool are searching for a right-sided midfielder, and Malbranque can play there or in the middle.

Malbranque has emerged as one of Fulham's best players in the last few seasons.
