Liverpool are believed to be keen on Monaco striker Radamel Falcao.
Reports in France suggest that the Reds are contemplating a summer move for the Colombian who spent last season on loan with Manchester United.
Chelsea are already heavily linked with Falcao, 29, but Liverpool have now reportedly joined the race and could try to hijack the Blues' move for his services.
Brendan Rodgers is determined to attract a quality striker to Anfield following last summer's failed signing of Mario Balotelli and the fact that Daniel Sturridge remains on the injured list.
