Liverpool have been given encouragement in their pursuit of Christian Eriksen by Ajax manager Frank de Boer.
The Reds are believed to be hot on the heels of the Danish playmaker, and although De Boer expressed his desire to keep the 21-year-old, the Ajax boss says he won't stand in Eriksen's way should he decide to move to Anfield.
'It is up to Christian what he wants,' said De Boer. 'If he feels good going to Liverpool anyway, then it is up to him.
'If Liverpool go back to really good possession play, it can be a success for Christian. But it does mean that their entire way of playing has to change.
'I would want nothing more than having him with us for a few more years.
'But we realise the interest in this kind of player is huge. And I can also understand that he wants to make another step in his career. I can't stop him.'
Roma are also believed to be keen on Eriksen, who would cost in the region of £15million.
