Liverpool are reportedly ready to launch a third and final offer for Inter Milan midfielder Philippe Coutinho.
The Reds have so far failed with two bids for the 20-year-old but are confident that they can land the Brazilian with an improved offer in excess of £8m, according to The Guardian.
The Italian side accepted a bid of around £10m from Southampton last week, but Coutinho rejected a move to the Saints.
Reds manager Brendan Rodgers is keen on the playmaker and the club will look to wrap up the deal early this week so they can turn their attentions to Blackpool's Tom Ince before the end of the transfer window on Thursday night.
