Liverpool have reportedly overtaken Manchester United in the race to sign Southampton's Adam Lallana.
United have identified Lallana and his full-back team-mate, Luke Shaw, as key components in their planned £200million rebuilding project this summer.
However, the Anfield club have offered the £25million-rated Lallana £50,000 per week, with the Reds confident the added lure of Champions League football next term can trump anything United can offer.
Tottenham and Arsenal have also been linked with the 25-year-old, who is expected to be named in Roy Hodgson's World Cup squad.
Lallana put in another eye-catching display as Saints beat Everton 2-0 at St Mary's yesterday.
