Liverpool chief Damien Comolli admits they're determined to uncover an Asian star.
The Reds have handed trials to two Chinese teenagers this week.
Comolli told Liverpoolfc.tv: "We think it's an untapped market. It has such a vast population and there are an incredible number of youngsters playing football in that part of the world.
"Statistically we think there will be good players coming out of these countries. With China being the biggest one and football being the most popular sport amongst young people, we feel it is an opportunity to find a quality player."
