Reds agree Konchesky sale

Liverpool have confirmed that a deal has been agreed for the sale of defender Paul Konchesky to Leicester City.

The move will bring to an end an unhappy year at Anfield for the full-back in which he was criticised for his performances and was loaned to Nottingham Forest.

Konchesky was a signing of former Liverpool boss Roy Hodgson who had previously worked with him at Fulham, but he did not feature in the plans of predecessor Kenny Dalglish.

Wolves had also been linked with a bid for the ex-Charlton, Tottenham and West Ham player, but Sven Goran Eriksson is set to add him to his Leicester revolution.

A short statement on Liverpool's official website read: "Liverpool have today finalised a deal to sell Paul Konchesky to Leicester City.

"The 30-year-old, who played 18 games for the Reds, will now join the Championship outfit for pre-season."
