Pepe Reina's future at Liverpool is under threat, with manager Brendan Rodgers considering January moves for Birmingham's England goalkeeper Jack Butland or young German prospect Ron-Robert Zieler.
And that will not be Rodgers's only move, with Liverpool close to finalising a £12million deal for Chelsea striker Daniel Sturridge and the £6m acquisition of his England Under 21 team-mate Thomas Ince.
Rodgers has been unsure about Reina, 30, since he arrived in the summer and wants a long-term replacement.
The Liverpool boss almost moved to sign England international Butland in the summer but held off. Now he is ready to step up his interest in the 19-year-old when the transfer window opens.
Zieler, meanwhile, is one of the best keepers in Germany and is contracted to Hannover with a £12.2m buy-out clause.
Having started his career at Manchester United, the 23-year-old joined Hannover in 2010 and has played more than 70 games. He also has two full Germany caps.
Reina has missed part of the season with a hamstring injury and one of Rodgers's problems is that No 2 keeper Brad Jones has failed to convince.
A possible destination for Reina is Arsenal, who tried to buy him two-and-a-half years ago, and he could even be part of a deal to entice Theo Walcott.
But that depends on whether Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger still considers a keeper to be a priority.
Sportsmail revealed last month Liverpool's interest in 23-year-old Sturridge and Ince, 20, who was allowed to leave Anfield for Blackpool 18 months ago for £250,000.
Liverpool tried to sign Sturridge in August but the deal fell through at the last minute. The striker joined Chelsea from Manchester City in 2009 for £6.5m but has failed to command a regular place and has made just two appearances this season while struggling with a hamstring injury.
He has still managed 24 goals in 95 games for Chelsea and Rodgers hopes he and Ince can ease the goalscoring burden on Luis Suarez.
Sturridge's representatives, Octagon, have denied he is seeking a contract of £80,000 a week when he moves and assurances of a central striking role.
A statement read: 'Daniel does not conduct his business in public. He also does not make demands in any negotiation, with regards to salary or playing position.'
Suarez, meanwhile, is targeted by Chelsea and Athletico Madrid.

Brad Jones gets new Liverpool Deal
Australian goalkeeper Brad Jones believes his new contract with English Premier League giants Liverpool has shown he has proved himself to Brendan Rodgers after the manager initially cast doubts over his long-term future at the club.
After a string of good performances standing in for the injured Pepe Reina, the Socceroos goalie has been rewarded with a new deal.
But he admits when Rodgers came in during the summer the situation was much more uncertain.
''When he came in I don't think he was too sure about whether I was going to stay or not and I had to prove to him I was worthy of being here,'' said Jones.
