Liverpool are considering a move for Juventus' Italy winger Federico Chiesa.
The 26-year-old attacker has been deemed surplus to requirements by Juve manager Thiago Motta, who took charge of the Serie A side earlier this summer.
Chiesa, who was part of Italy's squad at Euro 2024, reportedly has one year left on his contract.
He was not named in the squad for Motta's first league game in charge against Como and was also absent when Juventus played Hellas Verona on Monday.
Liverpool sporting director Richard Hughes said earlier this summer that the club would be "opportunistic if we can" when it came to making signings.
The process has involved the Reds showing exploratory interest in a number of players and it is understood the interest in Chiesa has not yet gone further than that.
Liverpool are closing in on a deal for Valencia goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili but have yet to make a signing so far this summer under new manager Arne Slot.
They did try to sign Spain midfielder Martin Zubimendi but he chose to stay at Real Sociedad.
Chiesa joined Juventus from Fiorentina in 2020 in a fee worth up to £54m.
He has played 131 times for the club and was part of Italy's Euro 2020-winning squad, but form and injuries have limited his appearances in recent seasons.
