Liverpool are closing in on Heerenveen winger Oussama Assaidi according to the Merseyside club.
The 24-year old Moroccan will undergo a medical after the Reds agreed a fee with his Dutch club and the mooted £3million move is expected to be completed by the weekend.
"Liverpool Football Club have reached an agreement with SC Heerenveen for the transfer of winger Oussama Assaidi, subject to the player passing a medical," read a statement on the club's official website.
Assaidi kicked off his career with FC Omniworld in 2006 before moving to De Graafschap in 2008. Since 2009 he has made 68 appearances for Heerenveen, scoring 20 goals, and has represented Morocco on more than 20 occasions.
