Liverpool target hints at AS Roma exit - 12:53 PM, Jun. 5, 2006

Philippe Mexes’s agent has warned the Italian giants to tie up the defender or risk losing him

The centre-half enjoyed an excellent season in Serie A and his omission from the French squad for the World Cup caused surprise in his homeland.

Liverpool are one of a number of clubs keeping tabs on the former Auxerre man, who is contracted to Roma until 2008.

“Philippe is happy in Rome,” said the player’s representative.

“However, I can’t hide the fact that we have received a number of offers from different top clubs in both Italy and abroad.”
