England full back Glen Johnson has left financial strugglers Portsmouth to join Liverpool for £17.5m. This is Benitez's first signing of the summer and despite paying heavily this is a great signing for the long term as Glen Johnson is only 24 and has a great future ahead of him.
Johnson was well rated at Chelsea and has continued to impress within the Premier League for Pompey and in the World Cup qualifiying matches for his national team. This signing could help to get other transfer activity moving as Arbeloa has been linked with big spenders Real Madrid who are looking at buying the full back for £8m.
