Liverpool FC are considering the offer of playing a lucrative end of season friendly in Mauritius.

The ECHO understands commercial staff from Anfield have flown to the island in the Indian Ocean off the south east coast of Africa to hold talks with officials.

No agreement has yet been reached but May 18 has been pencilled in as a possible date – a week after the Reds' final Premier League fixture against Newcastle.

Liverpool planned an end of season trip to Cape Town last May but that was cancelled after Premier Soccer League chiefs in South Africa ruled that no international friendlies were permitted during their domestic season.
