Liverpool boss Benitez plans shock return for Heskey

Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez is ready to make a shock January bid for Aston Villa striker Emile Heskey.

The Daily Star says Benitez is ready to step in and save Emile Heskey's World Cup dreams.

But only if he can get the England striker on the cheap.

Heskey has admitted he will consider his future in January if he continues to warm the bench at Aston Villa. Benitez has emerged as a potential saviour, who is considering making a cut-price £1.5m bid for him when the transfer window re-opens.
