Liverpool have made an approach for Birmingham City defender Scott Dann.
The 24-year-old has been tracked by the Reds after emerging as one of the country's leading centre-backs at St Andrews since arriving from Coventry City over two years ago.
A hamstring injury sustained during Birmingham's Carling Cup semi-final with West Ham in January prevented Dann from aiding Alex McLeish's side in their battle for Premier League survival, which included a 5-0 hammering at Anfield in April.
But the Liverpool-born defender, who has been likened to Kop legend Alan Hansen, could remain be set for a return to his boyhood club with the Blues expected to demand up to £10million for his services as they prepare to face next season in The Championship.
Barcelona's Jeffren tonight revealed that he is also the subject of interest from Liverpool.
The Venezuelan-born winger, however, refused to be drawn on his future until he returns from international duty with Spain at this month's European Under-21 Championships in Denmark.
"I am not thinking about anything like that [my future] at the moment," he told radio station Cadena Ser.
"I just want to concentrate on this [European Under-21 Championships]
