Liverpool have confirmed a fee has been agreed with FC Porto for the transfer of Portuguese midfielder Raul Meireles to Anfield.

The 27-year-old, who started all four of his country's games in this summer's World Cup, will now undergo a medical and discuss personal terms on Merseyside before completing his move to the Reds.

Raul Jose Trindade Meireles was born in Porto on March 17, 1983. He shares his birthday with American actor Rob Lowe and women's football superstar Mia Hamm.

Meireles was one of Portugal's star performers in their four matches at the 2010 World Cup finals. He played 329 minutes in total out in South Africa and covered a distance of 41.49km, reaching a top speed of 25.99 km/h.

As well as playing in all four matches at the tournament, he started each and every one of their 12 games in qualifying and scored a crucial goal in the play-off tie with Bosnia-Herzegovina.

Meireles won his first international cap in November 2006 against Kazakhstan, while his first goal for his nation came in a Euro 2008 clash with Turkey.

He's renowned for his love of tattoos. He had his first one done at the age of 19 and has since regularly added new ones all over his body.

Meireles already has experience of playing at Anfield - he was a 65th-minute substitute for Porto during an emphatic 4-1 win for Liverpool in the Champions League group stage clash in November 2007.

He's also competed against Arsenal, Manchester United and Chelsea in the tournament - scoring a volley against the latter in 2007.

He's no stranger to silverware having helped Porto to four consecutive league titles between 2006 and 2009, as well as three Portuguese Cups and three Super Cups.

Meireles also starred in Portugal's success in the European U16 Championships at the turn of the century.

After moving to Porto from Boavista in 2004, he was initially deployed at left-back before commanding a more familiar central midfield role.

New signing Raul Meireles has spoken of his desire to repay the faith shown in him by Roy Hodgson and help Liverpool get back to the top.

The 27-year-old midfielder has won four titles with Porto and been capped 38 times by Portugal, including in all four of his country's games in this summer's World Cup.

He is determined to show his qualities and be a big success in front of the Kop.

"Liverpool are an historic club and I am happy for the move," said Meireles.

"Roy Hodgson was key because he worked so hard to get me.

"I hope the fans will one day remember me for my success at Liverpool. It has been a long time coming but finally I have achieved my dream of playing in England."

I think it's a good signing tbh, I rate him as a player and it's the sort of player Liverpool should be buying; however, it's not the sort they need to buy to replace their best midfielder, Liverpool are going backwards big time and will become a mid-table club very soon without a new owner.
