Liverpool boss Kenny Dalglish is ready to make a move for Blackpool midfielder Charlie Adam when the summer transfer window opens for business according to reports in the Daily Star.
Dalglish has completed the deal to bring Sunderland's Jordan Henderson to Anfield in the summer for £20m and is now turning his attentions to playmaker Adam.
The 25-year-old had an impressive debut season in the Premiership with Blackpool despite the club getting relegated on the final day of the season.
Adam's performances where recognized by his peers as he was nominated for the PFA Players' Player of the Year award for last season.
Liverpool made a move for the Blackpool playmaker in the January transfer window but a bid of £7m was turned down and Blackpool chairman Karl Oyston is looking for in the region of £10m this time around.
Dalglish will face competition from Tottenham who were also interested in acquiring the services of Adam in January.
The Scottish international only has a year remaining on his current contract at Bloomfield Road, and Adam has stated he does not want to return to the Championship which could force Blackpool to cash in on their prized asset.
Last season Adam made 36 appearances for Blackpool in all competitions and scored 13 goals.
