Liverpool's £25 million spending spree ahead of Monday's transfer deadline will kick off with a double deal for defenders Tiago Ilori and Mamadou Sakho.
The centre-halves are due on Merseyside for a medical on Saturday, with Aston Villa's Shay Given also expected to complete a short-term move to deputise for Simon Mignolet.
Liverpool will then try to conclude negotiations with Chelsea for Victor Moses on a season's loan.
Ilori, from Sporting Lisbon, will cost around £8 million, while Sakho, who is leaving Paris St-Germain, is rated at £15 million. Moses's loan fee could stretch to £2 million.
The move for Given, 37, will be seen as a surprise, but the departure of Pepe Reina has left only Brad Jones as a deputy to Mignolet.
