Liverpool are preparing to make a second bid for Southampton midfielder Romeo Lavia.
The Reds saw a first offer of £37m knocked back on Tuesday, but are still hopeful of landing the teenager.
They have continued negotiations with Southampton and believe a deal can be struck, according to The Athletic.
Southampton are demanding a total package of £50m, and Liverpool feel their improved bid, which will include add-ons, could be deemed acceptable.
Personal terms with the player are not expected to be an issue.
