Liverpool are reportedly lining up a sensational move to steal Edinson Cavani from under the noses of Manchester City.

According to footybunker.com, Kenny Dalglish wants to strengthen his forward line.

Dalglish has identified fellow Uruguayan Cavani as the man to fire Liverpool back into Champions League contention.

The 23-year-old is currently on the books of Napoli and with 51 goals in 72 games has emerged as one of the deadliest strikers in Europe. His most recent scoring act was a brace against Inter Milan as they knocked Claudio Raneiri's side out of the Coppa Italia.

The 6ft 2" striker has scored 17 goals so far this season in all competitions and has previously been linked with moves to Chelsea and City. Both sides were unwilling to meet Napoli's £30 million pound asking price, however, allowing Liverpool to enter the equation.

It remains to be seen if Liverpool will stump up that rather large sum. With 10 goals in 36 games for his country alongside Suarez, however, there is no doubt that Cavani would form an exciting all-South American front line for the Reds.
