Birmingham City have had an approach for Liverpool forward Ryan Babel rejected, according to a report from The Daily Mirror.
The Blues, rumoured to have a war chest of �40 million available for the January transfer window following Carson Yeung's takeover of the club, reportedly made a bid of �9m for the player.
Reds boss Rafa Benitez is apparently keen to recoup the �12m paid for the Dutchman two years ago when he moved from Ajax. Babel himself is also keen to move to a club with Champions League prospects.
Reports over the last month or so have claimed that Babel and team-mate Andriy Voronin are set for Anfield exits as Benitez looks to raise cash for some much-needed reinforcement to help boost his side's stumbling season.
