The Reds have taken an offer in the region of £11.5 million to the table of the Serie 'A' side, although the Viola are thought to want more from Liverpool for the player.
Peruvian international Vargas, a versatile left winger who can also play in the wing back position, was reportedly close to joining Real Madrid from Catania before moving to the Stadio Artemio Franchi in 2008.
