Liverpool are ready to join the hunt for Newcastle United midfielder Cheick Tiote.
Chelsea and Manchester United are both thought to be keeping tabs on the 25-year-old, according to The Mirror.
Reds boss Kenny Dalglish sent a scout to watch the Ivorian during the Magpies' goalless draw at home to Swansea City on Saturday.
Tiote moved to the Sports Direct Arena from Dutch side FC Twente in summer 2010 for £3.5m.
