Palermo sporting director Walter Sabatini has admitted an interest in Liverpool midfielder Lucas Leiva, but said reports on having made a rich bid were less than accurate.
The Rosanero have long been linked with the Brazilian midfielder as they continue to bolster their squad following the departures of Simon Kjaer, Fabio Simplicio and Edinson Cavani.
And while they are keen on the Reds man, who recently claimed he was "happy" at Anfield, Sabatini insists there is no deal or offer in place just yet.
"Leiva is a very strong player and I like him very much," Sabatini told Calcionews24.com.
"But to speak of a deal already is not accurate. We have to wait. I cannot say any more."
Last month Sabatini denied his side had made a €7 million offer for the midfielder.
