Liverpool have made a 'strong push' for one of their main targets in what could turn out to be a wild six-player trade.
With Liverpool securing Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk to new deals, the club are now planning ahead for the summer transfer window.
Several names have been linked with a move to Anfield, including a trio of Premier League stars.
And they all play for one club, with Liverpool chasing Dean Huijsen, Milos Kerkez and Antoine Semenyo.

That's according to The Daily Mail, who claim the Bournemouth trio are high on Liverpool's transfer wish-list.
German journalist Florian Plettenberg has confirmed their interest in Huijsen, who is being targeted to replace Jarell Quansah in the squad.
In return, Bournemouth are keen on three Liverpool players, with a six-player transfer potentially on the cards.
The Cherries are believed to keeping tabs on Caoimhin Kelleher, Harvey Eliott and Ben Doak.
A six-player trade could be a possibility but talks over independent deals for all those Liverpool players could also potentially take place.
Per the report, the most realistic of Bournemouth's targets is thought to be goalkeeper Kelleher.
The 26-year-old, who has made 20 appearances across all competitions this season, is looking to secure a move away from Anfield, with Giorgi Mamardashvili set to move to the club following his pre-contract agreement.
The Ireland international has just one year left on his existing deal, with Liverpool seeking for a transfer fee to avoid a free scenario situation. £20 million has been mooted.
Elliott, who has played 13 league matches for Liverpool, has been frustrated by his lack of minutes under Arne Slot this season. However, he is happy at Liverpool and is keen to fight for his place, with the Reds not looking to sell the 22-year-old.
Doak, meanwhile, has impressed on loan at Middlesbrough, who are pushing for a play-off spot in the Championship.
The Scotland international, 19, is a big talent but first-team football at Liverpool next season appears unlikely considering the club's options in attack.
