Benitez wins scrap for Glen
LIVERPOOL have won the race to land Portsmouth's �19million full-back Glen Johnson.
The England defender is expected to have a medical on Merseyside tomorrow - unless Chelsea or Manchester City can gazump the Kop at the last minute.
Johnson, 24, has opted for Anfield after emerging as one of the most sought-after men in the Premier League this summer.
And his signing is a real coup for Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez, who feared the club's financial crisis would force him out of the bidding.
There is still the slight possibility Liverpool could be thwarted, with Chelsea determined to re-sign the man they sold to Pompey for just �4m two years ago.
And City are willing to pay the Londoner �100,000 a week to move to Eastlands.
Johnson only signed a new four-year deal with Portsmouth in January but has made no secret of wanting a bigger stage.
