Ajax playmaker Christian Eriksen is closing in on a move to Champions League runners-up Borussia Dortmund for a fee see to be between £10m-£13m.
Liverpool were closely watching developments regarding Denmark star Eriksen, who will be out-of-contract with Ajax next summer.
However, the Amsterdam club have opened talks with Dortmund over a transfer this summer, who look set to trump the interest of the Reds.
According to reports on the continent, Eriksen has agreed a five-year-contract with the Bundesliga club who are just to negotiate a fee with Ajax.
While Dortmund sporting director Michael Zorc insists on €12 million (£10.3m), Ajax want closer to €15m (£12.8m).
An agreement is likely to be made shortly however, with Liverpool forced to turn to other midfield targets for recruitment this summer.
Eriksen recently told Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf: "It's definitely a club [Dortmund] I want to play for. It has many young players and an interesting style of play, and Jürgen Klopp is one of the best coaches."
