Liverpool are plotting to seal a deal for Bayern Munich forward Thomas Muller, according to reports.
The German endured a barren campaign last season, sparking suggestions that he might be off this transfer window.
The arrival of James Rodriguez from Real Madrid has further dented the hopes of Muller getting into the plans of Carlo Ancelotti at the Allianz Arena next season.
Reports in reliable German outlet, SportBild claim that Liverpool have contacted Bayern Munich over the availability of the 27-year-old.
However, the Reds will have to beat a host of clubs in Europe following suggestions that Arsenal, Chelsea and Juventus are also interested in signing the forward.
Having signed Mohamed Salah for a record fee earlier this summer, Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is believed to be keen on bringing in more firepower to his attacking options this summer.
The arrival of Muller to Anfield in this transfer window could signal the end of an era for Daniel Sturridge who has not been able to nail a place in the plans of Klopp.
The English striker has been tipped to leave Liverpool this summer, with the likes of Crystal Palace and West Ham United both linked with moves for the forward.
