Moses signs for Liverpool on loan deal

Forward switches from Chelsea and becomes eighth signing at Anfield this summer

Liverpool have announced their third signing of the day after confirming Chelsea forward Victor Moses had joined on a season-long loan.

The Reds had already brought in defenders Tiago Ilori and Mamadou Sakho from Sporting Lisbon and Paris St Germain respectively.

Moses only joined Chelsea last summer, scoring 10 goals in 42 appearances, and his switch was confirmed on transfer deadline day after he passed a medical at the Anfield club.

Eight players have now been brought in by Reds boss Brendan Rodgers this summer, with Monday's arrivals following those of Kolo Toure, Iago Aspas, Luis Alberto, Simon Mignolet and Aly Cissokho.
