Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish is preparing to make a cut-price deal for Lyon left back Aly Cissokho once the January transfer window opens for business, according to reports in the Daily Mirror.
The French international is versatile and can operate in the midfield as well as in the full back position.
It is believed Premier League rivals Newcastle United are also interested in Cissokho, but the player would rather have a move to Anfield.
Recently Lyon president Jean Michel Aulas admitted the club will need to look for "some solutions", in order to balance the books.
This has alerted Liverpool who is willing to test the waters and is preparing to table an offer of £6million for Cissokho in the New Year.
Both Dalglish and Liverpool's director of football Damien Comolli a huge admirers of the 24-year-old and Comolli has good links with the Ligue 1 club which could also go in the Reds favour.
