Liverpool are in a five-way chase for St Etienne's midfield enforcer Blaise Matuidi.
The 23-year-old has been one of the Reds' key transfer targets ever since the arrival of Damien Comolli as the director of sporting strategy.
Comolli moved to Anfield from St Etienne, but Liverpool will face stiff competition from Serie A sides Roma, Juventus and Fiorentina, plus Bundesliga club Schalke.
St Etienne's asking price is thought to be around £8million, but the club insist they have received no concrete offers for the midfielder yet.
