Liverpool are reportedly on the brink of signing Red Bull Salzburg winger Takumi Minamino.
Last week, it was revealed that the two parties have opened discussions regarding a transfer ahead of the January window.
With Liverpool having met Minamino's £7.25m release clause and the player wanting to move to Anfield, negotiations over personal terms have advanced quickly.
According to Sky Sports News, the Japan international was due to undergo a medical with the Merseyside giants on Wednesday.
Providing that no issues have arisen from that assessment, the 24-year-old is expected to officially sign for Liverpool on January 1.
That would put the attacker in a position where he could make his debut in the FA Cup third round against Everton.
