Juventus are set to beat Liverpool to the signing of Argentine winger Diego Perotti.
It was thought that Kenny Dalglish had identified the Sevilla star as a contingency plan should his pursuit of Stewart Downing prove fruitless.
But reports in Spain have claimed that Liverpool, who are not prepared to pay more than £7.5m for the Argentinean, are now about to be trumped by Juve.
The Serie A side has submitted a £9m offer for the 22-year-old and is now awaiting a response from Sevilla.
But it is unclear whether Juve's bid will be enough to tempt the La Liga's side to sell because they hope to receive a fee closer to £14m for Perotti.
