Liverpool are in pole position in the race to sign Real Madrid and Portugal left-back Fabio Coentrao, writes Tom Hopkinson in the Sunday People.

Sunday People Sport understands the Kop outfit are in contact with the player's agent Jorge Mendes - the two parties are believed to have spoken as recently as last week - and that talks are well down the line.

Manchester City and Monaco are also keen on the 26-year-old but Brendan Rodgers' title chasers have moved to the head of the queue.

Real want at least £11.5million for Coentrao, who struggles to get a game with Brazil defender Marcelo preferred.

Coentrao was a target for Manchester United in January, and Tottenham were also interested, but baulked at Madrid's asking price. However that figure has now dropped by more than £3m and is tempting both Liverpool and City.
