Liverpool are poised to snap up Maxi Rodriguez, who is so keen to move from Atletico Madrid that he is ready to take a pay-cut.

Rafa Benitez has made Argentina winger Rodriguez his first target in this transfer window and is set to secure him in the next 48 hours on loan for the rest of the season, with a view to a permanent move.

Atletico would like to recoup some of the £6.25 million paid to take Rodriguez from Espanyol but, as he is not in their team, may reach a compromise with Liverpool.
