Liverpool are prepared to up their bid to sign Sunderland goalkeeper Simon Mignolet.
The Sunday Mirror says Liverpool will meet Sunderland's £10m valuation for Mignolet.
Anfield offers ranging from £6.5m to £9m for the Belgian have been rejected. But Kop chief executive Ian Ayre has postponed a scheduled trip to attend a football conference in Brazil to complete the deal.
Mignolet wants to "step up a level" after his crucial role in last season's relegation battle.
