Liverpool have been handed a deadline by Juventus if they are to move for Arturo Vidal, according to reports in Italy.

The Old Lady have told prospective suitors they will only entertain offers up until August 2.

Vidal has been linked with a move to Manchester Utd all summer, with the Reds also reportedly showing interest.

This comes following the Chilean international repeatedly stating he is unsure where his future lies.

The Reds are the favourites to sign Bayern Munich winger Xherdan Shaqiri after finally lodging a bid, reports Swiss newspaper Blick .

Brendan Rodgers and Co. are apparently heading the queue despite a long line of suitors and they suggest the Reds have offered £14.2million for the 22-year old which is believed to be close to the Bundesliga champions' valuation.

Both Juventus and Roma are also keen but the lure of the Premier League could prove decisive.

Finally, Oussama Assaidi's move to Stoke is in the balance, say the Express .

A fee of £4.5million rising to £7m has been agreed but personal terms are proving difficult.

The Moroccan spent the season on loan at the Britannia last term and was thought to be keen on a permanent switch, but the 25-year-old's wage demands are apparently proving a stumbling block.

The Potters are keen to do a deal ASAP and if an agreement isn't struck soon are prepared to look elsewhere.
