Liverpool are closing in on Alberto Moreno.
Javier Manquillo has arrived on a loan deal from Atletico - having been unveiled as a Reds player on Wednesday.
The Spanish right-back had been on Merseyside to undergo a medical ahead of a loan deal from the La Liga champions.
According to the Liverpool Echo the Reds have the option of making the deal a permanent one for a fee in the region of £5million.
Moreno, who has been Rodgers' top left-back recruit all summer long, looks set join his Spanish compatriot after a compromise was finally reached over a fee.
Negotiations stalled after the Anfield top brass balked at Sevilla's £20m valuation but that figure has now been haggled down to somewhere in the region of £16m.
Upon completion the double deal will take Rodgers' spending soaring past the £100m barrier with the pair joining Rickie Lambert, Adam Lallana, Emre Can, Lazar Markovic and Dejan Lovren as summer signings.
