Milan are preparing a bid to bring Andrea Dossena back to Italy, as Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez looks ready to sell him.
The 27-year-old full-back joined the Reds from Udinese last summer, but has failed to hold down a first team place.
Despite a good performance against Manchester United in March, Dossena has found it hard to impress Benitez.
He has made just 13 appearances for Liverpool this season and is said not to figure in the club's long-term plans.
Milan would like to give their existing full-backs, Gianluca Zambrotta and Marek Janukolovski, some healthy competition.
Dossena has seven Italy caps and is versatile enough to help out across the defence and midfield.
He is likely to cost £8m, as Liverpool look to recoup as much of the £10m they spent on him last summer.
Several other teams in Italy and England are believed to be interested in signing Dossena, who started his career with Hellas Verona.
