Liverpool are poised to complete the signing of Albert Riera from Espanyol after the Spanish wide midfielder flew to England for a medical.

Terms of the deal have been agreed between the clubs and 26-year-old Riera must only prove his fitness to seal his move to Anfield.

The fee involved is thought to be around £8m, with Riera set to return to the Barclays Premier League having previously had a loan spell with Manchester City in the 2005-06 season.
