Fiorentina winger Juan Manuel Vargas could be the subject of interest from Liverpool, says the player’s agent.
New Anfield chief Brendan Rodgers is looking at the Peru international, according to The Mirror, and could make a bid in the region of €12m to secure his services this summer.
The 28-year-old is contracted to the Serie A giants for another year but his agent admitted the South American would be tempted should Liverpool make a formal bid.
“There is the possibility that he [Vargas] will leave Fiorentina,” he said.
“But at this time it’s just a rumour and there is nothing official. He didn’t have the best of seasons and he needs to make up for it next season.
“Liverpool is an option, but there is also Malaga that has the fascination of playing in next season’s Champions League.
“Does he have a preference with regards to playing the Premier League or the Primera Liga? Vargas likes both leagues as well as the Serie A.”
