Liverpool have reportedly made a substantial offer for Paris-Saint Germain star Adrien Rabiot.
Spanish publication Mundo Deportivo claim the central midfielder is considering a move to Anfield.
PSG have tabled fresh terms to the French international, who is also attracting the attention of Manchester City and Barcelona .
The 23-year-old is said to have held talks with the Catalans about a possible switch to the Nou Camp.
However, it is reported that Rabiot is open on a move to the Etihad and the player can sign a pre-contract agreement in Janaury with his current deal up next summer.
He had spell at City's academy as a teenager before returning to France.
Liverpool have been linked with Rabiot for the past couple of months, but Jurgen Klopp has ruled out any big-money January transfer window deals.
“I don't think there is any reason to try to do something really big like bring in another striker," he said.
“At the moment it doesn't look like we will be too busy to be honest but it all depends on injuries and things like that.
“If something happens (to any of the squad) we might have to think new, but in the moment we have all what we need.”

No way, Fabinho has been good for the last three games & will get better. He moves the ball much more forward than Henderson. But a swap for Rabiot ? This is tricky as Rabiot is quality !!

Why bring in Rabiot. He may turn out worse than Fabinho and Fabinho is doing decent right now but as it stands, he's the 3rd worst from the options available at Pool behind Hendo and Lallana who are just average and don't belong in a top 6 side. That's not to say Fabinho won't improve cos everyone has seen what he's capable of however Wijnaldum, Keita, Milner are all better option than Fabinho and imo Fabinho = Rabiot.... So it makes no sense to bring Rabiot in
