Liverpool are in advanced talks to sign Dutch forward Cody Gakpo from PSV Eindhoven.
The 23-year-old had an impressive World Cup in Qatar, scoring three goals as he helped the Netherlands reach the quarter-finals.
The Reds have made a move for Gakpo with forwards Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota facing lengthy spells on the sidelines.
The fee is reported to be an initial £37m, which could rise to £40m with add-ons.
Liverpool and Netherlands defender Virgil van Dijk spoke glowingly about his club and international team-mate during the 2022 World Cup.
"Hopefully Cody can go to the moon and back," said Van Dijk during the tournament in Qatar.
