Il Corriere dello Sport understands Liverpool have flown to Italy for talks with Roma about the prospect of signing Alberto Aquilani.
Yesterday Roma fans staged a protest expressing their anger at the club's lack of activity in the transfer market this summer.
As takeover talks come to a standstill and with no new investment in sight, Roma will have to sell if they are to buy ahead of next season.
Reports suggest Liverpool have identified Aquilani as the perfect replacement for Xabi Alonso, who appears ready to leave for Real Madrid.
Il Corriere believes Roma have told Aquilani that they will sell him should a decent offer arrive.
The 25-year-old who was born and bred in Rome struggled with injury last season, but also signed a new contract a couple of months ago.
Yesterday his agent, Franco Zavaglia, denied the existence of an offer from Liverpool.
“For now, they have not contacted me. I don't know anything. For now, there is nothing concrete,” Zavaglia said.
Roma have made a habit of selling one of their jewels every summer for the last three years.
