London, (ANI): Spanish football giants Real Madrid have reportedly made discreet enquiries about England and Liverpool mid-fielder Steven Gerrard, and according to club sources, are ready to buy him for 30 million pounds.
The Mirror quoted sources close to Gerrard, as saying that he was unhappy at Anfield.
Real Madrid had tried to secure Gerrard's services three years ago, but failed.
Like Fernando Torres, the Anfield superstar is worried about the future of the club and the direction it has taken over the past season.
He has been visibly and verbally at odds with manager Rafa Benitez in the latter stages of the season, and is closely monitoring the situation over the manager's position at the club.
Benitez held a meeting yesterday with new chairman Martin Broughton and MD Christian Purslow, which ended in stalemate after talks over the Spaniard's future.
Benitez looks certain to be in charge for Liverpool's final game of the season at Hull on Sunday.
But beyond that his position is uncertain, after he failed to secure all the conditions he demanded to remain.
What is certain is that Gerrard and Torres will keep their options open as the end of the season approaches. Neither will rule out a departure if they feel there are not sufficient resources to mount a serious rebuilding program at the club.
