Liverpool will make a last ditch offer of £10million plus midfielder Christian Poulsen to Stoke City for captain Ryan Shawcross.
The Reds are in need of central defensive cover because of doubts over Jamie Carragher and Sotirios Kyrgiakos' long-term futures and Daniel Agger's fitness.
Anfield boss Kenny Dalglish has already had a £10million offer rejected by the Potters who want closer to £18million for the club skipper.
The 23-year-old has impressed with his no-nonsense approach to defending and fits into Dalglish's policy of buying young British talent.
Dalglish will put his offer forward as he is aware the transfer window will soon close and he needs a centre-back in the club now rather than in January.
