Liverpool are moving for Bolton Wanderers defender Gary Cahill.
The Sunday Mirror says Kop boss Kenny Dalglish wants to build his team around predominantly British talent.
Dalglish has been handed the biggest single transfer kitty in Anfield history by owners Fenway Sports.
Liverpool have turned their attentions to Bolton's Cahill after Phil Jones chose Manchester United ahead of Anfield, with the England centre-back having a £16million release clause in his contract.
