Liverpool are ready to launch a bid to sign Arsenal target Mateo Kovacic it is believed.
Arsenal had been targeting the Inter Milan midfielder for some time, but Brendan Rodgers is prepared to add the central midfielder to his Reds squad this summer.
The Gunners do offer the prospect of almost guaranteed Champions League football next season, but the midfielder is thought to be keen on a move to Merseyside.
His current club Inter Milan, whom he joined in 2013 from Croatian side Dinamo Zagreb, are happy for the midfielder to depart as Roberto Mancini looks for funds to rebuild the Series A side this coming summer transfer window.
