Reds boss Rafa Benitez is believed to be after Spurs striker Roman Pavlyuchenko.
The Russian forward has found life difficult at White Hart Lane, spending the majority of time on the bench for Tottenham Hotspur as Jermain Defoe, Robbie Keane and Peter Crouch hog the starting positions.
Pavlyuchenko is keen to leave North London, and the striker has been constantly linked with a move to Serie 'A' side Roma.
However, Liverpool boss Benitez is keen to add some strength to his thin attacking options, and Pavlyuchenko could be a shock choice for the Spaniard.
Rumours that originally surfaced in The People refuse to go away, and the striker hasn't hidden his desire to move.
"I only sit on the bench for my club - I can only hope that January will bring changes in my life," said Pavlyuchenko.
"I've never had such a black period in my life."
