Liverpool have reportedly been given the all-clear to open talks with PSV winger Memphis Depay about a summer transfer to Anfield after boss Brendan Rodgers received assurances about his future with the Reds.
It is claimed that the Reds coach wants to sign more established players to slot straight into the first-team in the upcoming transfer window, and sees PSV's in-demand man as an ideal signing.
The Eredivisie side are thought to have given Liverpool permission to hold talks with Depay - who will reportedly cost upwards of £15million to £18million to recruit - after the Reds previously made preliminary contact with the winger.
The 21-year-old is also being chased by Liverpool's rivals Manchester United who, according to PSV, asked about the availability of the player following the club's Dutch title win at the weekend, which Depay scored in.
