Alexandre Lacazette could leave Lyon for as little (in football terms) as £21m, after contract negotiations broke down with the French club.

Liverpool FC, however, could face a battle to sign the striker, with Arsenal and Chelsea also interested.

That is, of course, if the Reds are even interested in signing the French international.

Lacazette scored 27 goals in Ligue 1 last term, attracting interest from clubs across Europe. David Venditelli, the player's agent, has spoken out about the contract impasse with Lyon, saying Lacazette has "significant" offers from elsewhere.

The offers we've had from abroad are very significant in terms of finances," Venditelli said. "Ultimatums and media pressure won't change our demands, which OL are aware of."

Christian Benteke has set his sights on a move to Anfield, despite rumoured interest from Tottenham, that's according to reports today.

The Belgium international is Liverpool's number one striker target this summer, but the Reds remain reluctant to meet his £32.5m buyout clause.

Yesterday, reports emerged that Tottenham were also potential suitors, and had planned a player plus cash deal, with Emmanuel Adebayor offered in part exchange for the forward.

However the London Evening Standard reports that Benteke is upset with Spurs because over the fallout over their attempts to sign him back in 2013, and reports today say Benteke has his heart set on a move to Anfield.

Whether he gets that move remains to be seen, with Liverpool hoping to reach a compromise with Aston Villa over the player's fee.

And finally, Rodgers is said to be pondering a move for Atlanta defender Davide Zappacosta.

The right-back impressed at the European U21 Championships and his good form for both club and country is said to have attracted the interest of Fiorentina and Torino.

Liverpool are expected to confirm the arrival of Southampton right-back Nathaniel Clyne today, but it is reported that 23-year-old Zappacosta is wanted to provide competition for the England man.
