Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers' resolve to retain their top players will be tested with Daniel Agger being targeted by Real Madrid, according to the Mirror.

AC Milan are eyeing a loan move for Andy Carroll but Rodgers may not be willing to lose another defender with Manchester City also keen on Martin Skrtel.

Agger, 27, has won the FA Cup, the Carling Cup and reached the Champions League Final with Liverpool since arriving there six years ago.

Real boss Jose Mourinho is already understood to be closing in on Spurs midfielder Luka Modric and is looking to reinforce his backline at the Bernebeu.
