Liverpool are set to break the bank this month for Sevilla striker Alvaro Negredo, according to reports in Spain.
The one-time Tottenham target has been in glittering form for Sevilla so far this season and has moved above Brazil star Luis Fabiano in the club's pecking order.
His displays have alerted Liverpool, who are desperate to further their striking options with Fernando Torres and David N'Gog the only senior strikers in their squad.
Negredo has a £70m release clause but it is understood that Sevilla would be willing to part with the striker for a fee of around £17m.
And reports have claimed that Liverpool has already made informal contact with Sevilla about a January deal - and a solid offer is expected in the next fortnight.
