Liverpool have stepped up their efforts to sign Juventus winger Federico Chiesa, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport.
Juve are believed to be considering the sale of the Italy international this summer.
The Reds are among several clubs who are interested in the 25-year-old and are ready to submit an opening offer.
Liverpool are willing to pay €40m for the former Fiorentina star, but Juventus are holding out for a €60m fee.
Chiesa is reportedly upset with the way things are going at the club, and his relationship with head coach Massimiliano Allegri has deteriorated this term.
Allegri is leaning to continue with a 3-5-2 formation next season, while the Italian winger prefers to feature in a 4-3-3 setup.
