Hull City are in talks to sign Liverpool's Serbia forward Lazar Markovic, who has been on loan at Sporting Lisbon since the summer.
The 22-year-old could move to the KC Stadium until the end of the season, but his season-long deal in Portugal would need to be ended first.
Liverpool, Markovic and Sporting are in talks to terminate that agreement.
Markovic joined the Reds from Benfica for £20m in 2014 and played 34 times before a loan move to Fenerbahce.
He made 20 appearances for the Turkish club last season and has played 14 times for Sporting, scoring two goals.
