Liverpool and Blackburn target Esteban Granero is available for transfer this month and can be bought for around £8m.
Kenny Dalglish was reportedly considering a move for the Real Madrid midfielder as cover for the injured Lucas and the fragile Steven Gerrard.
Blackburn were also hoping to take the former Spain U21 international on loan for the rest of the season in what would have been an audacious coup for Steve Kean's struggling side.
Jose Mourinho has told the 24-year-old he is surplus to requirements at the Bernabeu but they are unwilling to let the former Getafe man leave on loan and would prefer to recoup some of the £4m they paid for him in 2009.
