Liverpool have completed the signing of Wales striker Craig Bellamy from Blackburn on a four-year deal.
The Merseysiders were given permission to speak to the 26-year-old after triggering a clause in his contract with a £6m (€8.75m) bid.
Following a fall-out with then Newcastle manager Graeme Souness, Bellamy joined Blackburn in July last year and scored 15 goals, having been on loan at Celtic in the previous season.
