Man City in with mega bid for Gerrard......
Manchester City is set to out-bid Real Madrid for Steven Gerrard's signature with a massive 40million move for the Liverpool skipper.
The Liverpool skipper is set to quit Anfield this summer following a disappointing season and with the Anfield club in financial disarray, it would be an offer too tempting for the Liverpool to pass.
According to The Mirror, Manchester City's owner has already given the green light for the club to go all out to bring Gerrard to Eastlands.
On the other hand, Rafael Benitez could let his captain go if the Liverpool board can guarantee that the money will be utilized to strengthen the squad after finishing a disappointing season. He has previously said that he would not sell both Fernando Torres and Steven Gerrard if he is to stay at Anfield.
Liverpool ended the season with a scoreless draw against Hull City and finished a disappointing 7th in the Barclays Premier League.
