Liverpool have got the green light to sign Yann M'Vila after the midfielder's agent admitted he is keen on a move to the Premier League.

Reds boss Brendan Rodgers is known to rate M'Vila highly, and he has been receiving glowing scouting reports on his performances for Rubin Kazan this season.

And amid growing rumours that Liverpool are now ready to make a bid for the France international, his agent has revealed that M'Vila is desperate to play in England.

"I think many players dream of playing in the Premier League - Yann is no different," said Werner Baader.

"I will not deny there is interest from many European clubs, including English teams.

"We will see what happens."

M'Vila, who was previously a target for Arsenal, is believed to favour a transfer to Liverpool over any other club.

He was spotted taking in the Merseyside derby with Everton at Anfield earlier this season, and has previously hinted that he followed the Reds growing up.
