Liverpool winger Ryan Kent is expected to return to Anfield after a disappointing loan spell with Freiburg.
Liverpool are, however, ready to allow Ben Woodburn and Ovie Ejaria out this month with Sunderland among the clubs leading the chase for Woodburn.
Kent, who impressed for Liverpool during pre-season has appeared just six times in the Bundesliga for relegation-battling Freiburg.
Ejaria and Woodburn both broke through last year, making eight and nine appearances respectively, but both have struggled for game time this season.
