Liverpool may have failed in their initial attempts to sign Southampton defender Virgil van Dijk but they are set to return for him in January.
The Dutchman is back playing for Saints after handing in a transfer request earlier this year but the bookies are still backing him to make the Anfield switch.
Liverpool have been made favourites to sign him by every bookmaker, despite them stating they would back away from the pursuit.
Jurgen Klopp's side will, however, face competition for his signature from the likes of Chelsea and Manchester United.
Here is the rest of the Liverpool news from Saturday's papers...
Keita unlikely to join in January
Liverpool's chances of bringing Naby Keita to Anfield in January are slim, it is understood.
The Guinean international has been under fire from the press in Germany and his own boss after RB Leipzig slumped to a 2-0 defeat against Besiktas in the Champions League, report the Liverpool Echo.
That leaves Leipzig bottom of their group with a double-header against Champions League stalwarts FC Porto on the horizon after the international break - leading to speculation the Reds could get their man six months earlier than anticipated.
Liverpool's summer long pursuit of the highly-rated midfielder was spurned by Leipzig until a compromise was struck with the Reds securing his services from July 1, 2018.
Klopp discusses potential Christmas cracker
Jurgen Klopp claims he does not think anyone wants to see Liverpool play at Arsenal on Christmas Eve.
Sky are considering switching the game to December 24 at 3pm at the Emirates and Klopp says it makes no sense.
He accepts that the clubs have little say because they signed the latest TV deal, but says the broadcasters must be careful not to damage the product with their demands.
“I always said that the broadcaster has to consider that the wonderful thing they sell - and they do give a lot of money to the clubs - depends on the quality and freshness of the players,” said the Reds boss.
