LONDON (AFP) - Liverpool on Monday gave Portsmouth permission to open talks with their England international striker Peter Crouch.

Pompey have previously had one bid, believed to be 9 million pounds (17.7 million dollars), turned down.

But Liverpool revealed they had reached an agreement with their Premier League rivals, opening the way for negotiations between the south-coast club and their former player.

"We have reached a verbal agreement with Portsmouth and have given them permission to speak with Peter," a spokesman told the club's website.

Crouch joined Liverpool for 7 million pounds from Southampton, having previously played for Pompey in 2001-02.

Let us hope Peter finally gets his move from Liverpool. This last season has not been good for his career. He needs to play Premiership football on a regular basis, and I am sure he will excel playing for Portsmouth. For a guy on the fringe of the England setup Liverpool have not done him any favours.

Crouch should consider a switch to NBA.........he'll probably give Yao Ming a run for his money...........LOL

You BesTalent should consider a switch to Milan! I'm sure your scouting talent would be of a great benefit to them.

i discovered so many talented Italian players since the 80's you wouldn't believe !

there was a Massimo Agostini at Milan once but the club didn't make good use of him.

the biggest player i found that went to Milan was the incredible Marco Simone and Milan used him as a super-sub his whole career !
