Portsmouth manager Harry Redknapp has confirmed his interest in Liverpool's Israel international midfielder Yossi Benayoun.
Benayoun is reportedly frustrated at a lack of opportunities at Anfield, triggering a host of interest from Premier League rivals.
Manchester City's new boss Mark Hughes has been linked with the 28-year-old, but Pompey have now joined the queue for his signature.
Redknapp believes the former Racing Santander man would be a quality addition to his squad, although he is unsure of his availability.
"Of course I'd like to have someone like Yossi Benayoun," he told Portsmouth's The News.
"He's a top player. I don't know what the chances are of getting him out of Liverpool."
The former West Ham manager is also keen on Peter Crouch but thinks he cannot match the Reds' valuation of the England international.
"It's known I like Crouchie, too. But I think Liverpool want a bit too much money for him," he continued.
"If that's the case then we'll move on to the next option."
