Liverpool's director of football strategy, Damien Comolli, has confirmed that the club will make a quality signing in January if the price is right.
The Reds badly need some inspiration to help their two stars, Steven Gerrard and Fernando Torres, and according to Comolli, things will happen in the next transfer window.
"We have a pretty good idea of what we would like to do and we have identified targets," Comolli said.
"If there's a possibility of us getting a world-class player, we will have the backing.
"(Owners) John (Henry) and Tom (Werner) want to win - and you win with top players.
"If it can be done in January, great. If it can't because we feel it is the wrong market or players are overpriced, then we will wait.
"I'm not going to say we won't do anything in January because that is not the idea at the moment.
"We will do what is right for the long term. What is right for the long term can be something we do in January."
