Liverpool are pushing Virgil van Dijk to agree to new terms, according to Spanish sources.
El Desmarque says Liverpool's offer is currently falling short of what the Holland international is seeking.
Van Dijk has learned he's not earning as much as Oranje teammate Matthijs de Ligt at Juventus and is demanding at least parity.
And the stand-off, it has been claimed, has alerted Europe's biggest clubs.
Juventus, Real Madrid and PSG are all keeping tabs on Van Dijk's negotiations.
