Liverpool are reportedly closing in on the signing of Ajax midfielder Hakim Ziyech, and could pip Merseyside rivals Everton to his signature.
The two clubs have both been linked with the Moroccan international, who has scored nine goals and assisted 17 others in the Erividisie this term.
According to Calciomercato, however, the Reds, who are yet to submit an offer, are in pole position to land the 25-year-old ahead of their rivals.
"From the January transfer window, I have been clear that it was my intention to leave Ajax in the summer," Ziyech told Ajax Life.
"However, the situation has to be right at the next club. If that is not the case, then I will stay."
Ziyech is also allegedly on the radar of Lyon, Roma and Borussia Dortmund.
