Liverpool managing director Ian Ayre is reportedly in Spain as the club attempt to secure a deal for Real Madrid midfielder Nuri Sahin.
The 23-year-old, who struggled for form last season, has been strongly linked with a move to Arsenal before the end of the transfer window.
However, according to AS, Ayre is currently locked in talks with the player's agent and a deal could be completed this week.
Sahin joined Madrid from Borussia Dortmund in 2011.
