Liverpool are reportedly interested in signing Mali international Seydou Keita on a free transfer this summer.
The experienced midfielder is currently with Valencia after signing a six-month contract with the Spanish outfit at the start of 2014.
However, the 34-year-old's deal expires at the end of next month and it is understood that talks with Los Che have stalled over the player's wage demands.
According to Super Deporte, Liverpool are monitoring proceedings with a view to making contact over the next week.
Keita departed Barcelona for Chinese side Dalian Aerbin last summer before returning to Spain.
