Mario Balotelli will undergo a medical at Melwood on Friday ahead of his proposed £16m move to Liverpool.
Reports claim the Italian international will arrive in Merseyside shortly, and could officially be announced as a Liverpool player before the weekend.
The swift proceedings may allow Balotelli to face his former side Manchester City as they go head-to-head with Brendan Rodgers' men on Monday night.
It is unlikely any complications will arise during the 24-year-old's medical considering he has played a large proportion of AC Milan's pre-season fixtures.
Balotelli constitutes Rodgers' ninth signing of the summer, after Divock Origi, Alberto Moreno, Lazar Markovic, Javi Manquillo, Dejan Lovren, Rickie Lambert, Adam Lallana and Emre Can.
