Former Liverpool manager Benitez is thought to be planning a mid-season move for 25-year-old Agger.

It was the Spaniard who signed him from Brondby for £5.8m in January 2006.

However, President Massimo Moratti could put the brakes on amid fears Agger is also a risky prospect.

The Denmark international is struggling with a persistent calf injury and the date of his return at Anfield is unknown.
