McBride has had loan spells with Preston and last season with Everton, were his time was successful, although he failed to make his deal permanent due to financial reasons. He is currently playing for American side, Columbus Crew. A proven record would make him a sensible buy for Souness who confirmed his thoughts today.
“We are looking for someone with physical presence, and Brian is one of those in whom we are showing interest.”
This announcement comes after Souness had given a wake-up call to Dwight Yorke and Andrew Cole to add to their scoring tallies this season and bring back their old deadly reputation.
