Liverpool are lining up a bid for PSV Eindhoven winger Zakaria Bakkali.
Inside the final year of his present deal, the 18 year-old Belgian has been dumped to PSV's 'B' team in preseason after refusing to consider new contract talks.
Sport-Magazine says Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers is ready to rescue Bakkali and bring him to Merseyside.
The Reds intend to offer €8 million for the midfielder in the coming days.
Bakkali famously turned down Manchester City as a junior player when leaving Ajax.
