RAFA BLOCKS OWEN MOVE

Michael Owen

Sunday June 24,2007

By Paul Hetherington

LIVERPOOL boss Rafa Benitez has rejected the chance to give England striker Michael Owen an Anfield return.

Newcastle were prepared to trade Owen for two Liverpool players – striker Craig Bellamy and left-back John Arne Riise.

But Benitez ruled out a deal for Owen, which would also have taken Bellamy back to Tyneside.

However, Owen could still be on the move – with  Manchester City and Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger also interested in the 27-year-old striker.
