Liverpool are ready to challenge Newcastle United's interest in KAA Gent winger Moses Simon.
HLN says Liverpool are said to be considering a move for Nigerian star Simon.
The 22-year-old has caught the eye of some Premier League clubs after impressive performances for Gent this term.
Simon is thought to be on the radar of Newcastle and Brighton but Liverpool have now entered the running.
The Premier League trio are all monitoring the winger, who could make Nigeria's World Cup squad.
Simon is likely to cost around £13million, should he move on.
