Liverpool are reportedly confident of signing England international James Milner in the summer.
The 29-year-old will be available on a free transfer if he does not agree a new contract with Manchester City.
The Premier League champions have offered Milner a fresh deal, with manager Manuel Pellegrini confident that he will remain at the Etihad.
However, Liverpool believe that a promise of regular first-team football could persuade Milner to make a switch to Anfield, according to ESPN.
Milner joined City from Aston Villa for £26m in 2010.
