BRENDAN RODGERS wants to lure Barcelona star Pedro to Anfield.

Rodgers has targeted "multi-dimensional" signings for Liverpool with a top-class forward on his agenda.

And with new Barca coach Luis Enrique expected to overhaul the Nou Camp squad this summer, the Reds feel an ambitious move for Pedro could come off.

According to reports, Liverpool have already made a discreet enquiry over the Spanish international's availability.

Pedro would cost in excess of £20million, but his versatility is exactly what Rodgers is looking for.

The Liverpool boss is also keen on Southampton's Adam Lallana but has been told to up his initial £20m bid to £25m.

There are hopes on Merseyside that Lallana could become a Liverpool player before the World Cup if the two clubs can reach an agreement.

Lallana and Pedro both joining the Premier League runners-up is not an unrealistic proposition, with a reported £60m transfer budget at Rodgers' disposal before sales.
