Liverpool are eyeing a January swoop for Spartak Moscow midfielder Quincy Promes.
The Reds have been linked with the Dutch star before but look set to step up their interest in the next transfer window.
According to Transfermarketweb, Jurgen Klopp is "plotting" a move for Promes in January despite interest from Arsenal and Everton.
The 25-year-old has scored 52 goals in 103 appearances for the Russian Premier League side since joining from FC Twente in 2014.
Promes has also collected 23 caps.

Give Jurgen Klopp time, says Kevin Keegan

Kevin Keegan has urged ­Liverpool to give Jurgen Klopp the time to finish the job at Anfield.
The Reds have been haunted by ­defensive frailty but former England manager Keegan claimed all top Premier League teams now struggle defensively because of changes to the laws.
The former Kop star, 66, preferred to go to wine-tasting on Thursday night rather than watch England qualify for the World Cup.
But though Keegan insisted he does not miss football, his world-weariness was replaced by enthusiasm when asked about the German who took over his former club two years ago.

Emre Can names past and present Liverpool heroes in ultimate XI

Much like Liverpool themselves, Emre Can has been having an up-and-down season.
When the Reds have been on form, such as in the 4-2 Champions League win over Hoffenheim in which Can scored twice, the German midfielder has been very good.
But then there's always a show of inconsistency around the corner, like in the 1-1 Champions League draw at Spartak Moscow in which Can's error led to the hosts' goal.
One team that wouldn't be inconsistent, however, is the best XI that Can named for Liverpool's official website recently.
Made up of players who he has played both with and against, it is a team that would certainly be a match for anyone.
