No chance. Tottenham are a rising force, Liverpool are a sinking ship.
That act in itself tell me that Harry's motivated by only one thing and one thing only, so it could come down soles on the deal Daniel Levy offers him in comparison to Liverpool. If we're deluded by the current position of both teams, don't be. Liverpool like it or not are a massive outfit and a prestigious club to manage. Tottenham are going places, no doubt about and there always seems to be something from the 'Sky Four' clubs that put a spoke in anything we try to do, perhaps is just another one?
Liverpool regardless of their current problems are a huge club both domestically and in Europe. However, it would take him a few seasons to get Liverpool's squad back on track. Would he give up a deep and settled squad with CL football next year? Would he give up his home on the south coast? Probably not.
Harry would no doubt consider the move seriously but is probably going to be put off by the move away from his settled home life and a lack of funds to quickly turn things around. It's more likely he'll use this and the noises coming out of the Middle East to ensure Levy provides a nice fat contract. Let's not lose sight of the fact he was very quick to rebuff comments that he'd been given bonuses for preventing relegation and providing CL football.
I don't think anyone should worry about Levy's actions, as it's not like there was much publicity before new contracts were announced for King, Bale, Modric and Cudicini. Trust that Daniel is all over this, and this fuss will simply serve to speed-up negotiations.
COYS!
