Borussia Dortmund are looking to swoop for Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan.
The 24-year old Armenian has already emerged as a strong target for Liverpool but the Germans are keen to lure him to the Westfalenstadion with a £19.5million bid.
The Reds were credited with a £20m interest in Mkhitaryan but recent reports indicate that Dortmund have made their presence felt with a robust offer.
