Lallana is believed to be in Liverpool for a medical ahead of a move to the Reds, who earlier this month raided Southampton for forward Rickie Lambert.

Brendan Rodgers' side saw several offers rejected for the England international this summer, but now appear to have struck a deal with Saints.

It is understood the deal could go through as early as Friday, with Lallana due to have a medical at Liverpool’s Melwood training ground in the afternoon.

The move would end the midfielder’s 14-year association with Southampton, who he joined from Bournemouth in September 2000 aged 12.

That deal included a 25% sell-on clause, meaning the Cherries are set for a cash windfall from the reported £25m move.
