Liverpool Consider Move for Newcastle Forward Hatem Ben Arfa: The Daily EPL

Newcastle United are still interested in bringing Andy Carroll back to Tyneside, so in order for the deal to go through, Liverpool are interested in getting Hatem Ben Arfa heading to Anfield as part of the deal, according to The Guardian.

It sounds like a brilliant deal to me, but I can’t see it happening. Newcastle United would be mad to let go of Hatem Ben Arfa. Newcastle knows that Liverpool doesn’t want Carroll, who’s on loan at West Ham, so the Geordies can play hardball in my opinion and refuse to let Ben Arfa go as part of the deal.

What do you think? How would Ben Arfa look in this Liverpool side, and should Newcastle say yes to the deal or not?
