Liverpool are the latest club to be linked with a move for Atletico Madrid defender Diego Godin who has reiterated his desire to move to the Premier League.
The Uruguay international was strongly linked with a switch to Chelsea over the summer but it appears as though Andre Villas-Boas will now move to sign the cheaper option in Bolton centre-back Gary Cahill.
That has opened the door for two of Chelsea's rivals with Liverpool and Arsenal both hoping to secure the services of 25-year-old defender.
Godin's agent Diego Herdia Triguero has now revealed that the defender has attracted interest from a number of English clubs.
As I said, Godin is talked about a lot in England, there are clubs like Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal who are also quite careful about certain players.
"I've spoken a little to all of them. But real negotiations have not yet been launched," Triguero told Calciomercato.com.
Both Liverpool and Arsenal have been linked with a number of defenders in recent months but are aware that they would have to offer as much as £15million for the defender.
Godin has 47 caps for Uruguay and was an integral member of the team that won the Copa America earlier this year.
