Liverpool are attempting to prise Zinho Vanheusden away from Inter Milan.
Corriere dello Sport says Inter are concerned over Liverpool's interest in the young Belgian.
The defender is tied to Inter until 2019 and they're attempting to extend his deal.
Liverpool, however, are in contact with Vanheusden's camp and are attempting to ferry him to Anfield in January.
Inter are offering the youngster a new three-year contract, but are battling to convince him to sign due to Liverpool's interference.
