Atletico Madrid have approached Liverpool about the availability of winger Mark Gonzalez.
The Chile international is on-loan at Real Sociedad and Atletico want to take over the arrangement for the first-half of next season.
There's a feeling in Spain that Gonzalez will not be granted a work permit to play in England and will have to be farmed out to Spain for another six months by Liverpool.
Reds boss Rafa Benitez is interested in the deal, which would allow him to establish a relationship with Atletico with a view to acquiring the likes of Gabi or Luis Perea in the future.
