Liverpool remain in the hunt for long-term target Luciano Vietto.
AS says Liverpool are willing to trigger Villarreal striker Vietto's release clause.
The Reds will have to battle Arsenal and Atletico Madrid for the youngster's signature though, with those two sides also willing to pay Vietto's modest £14m fee.
Vietto, 21, has netted 18 goals in 46 appearances for Villarreal this season.
