Liverpool are chasing Real Madrid midfielder Asier Illarramendi for the summer market. Illarramendi is also wanted by former club Real Sociedad.
El Confidencial says Real are willing to sell for €12 million, with Liverpool and Real Sociedad keen.
Despite starting two of Real Madrid's five matches since the close of the window, he has been pushed further down Carlo Ancelotti's pecking order following the arrival of Brazilian midfielder Lucas Silva, and Brendan Rodgers could offer him a route out of the Bernabeu.
