Sevilla striker Alvaro Negredo has emerged as a back-up option for Liverpool if their move for £20 million-rated Luis Suarez fails to materialise, according to The Times.
The Reds are in the hunt for a new striker this January, with David Ngog and Dirk Kuyt their only first-team options to partner Fernando Torres in attack.
Ajax's high valuation for Suarez has forced the club to consider other avenues, and Negredo's form for Sevilla this season has led to director of football strategy Damien Comolli making a firm enquiry about his availability.
Kenny Dalglish and Comolli are said to have now switched their attentions to the Spaniard as his transfer fee would be more realistic for the club's finances.
