Bolton Wanderers midfielder Josh Vela is impressing Liverpool scouts.
The Daily Mail says Vela impressed Liverpool staff in the recent cup ties between the sides and they will keep an eye on his performances.
Vela, now 21, was the subject of a £1 million offer from Liverpool four years ago.
The youngster can play at right back as well as in midfield and has two years left on contract.
