Rafa Benitez is understood to be meeting the Liverpool board this week to get definitive answers over transfer funds this summer.
Amazingly, the Reds are still yet to make a senior capture this close season despite the manager expecting to get major transfer funds from the new American owners.
A number of transfer targets have reportedly slipped the net so far because of high asking prices and Benitez has indicated his frustration at a lack of activity at Anfield.
The manager has always stated that he would like to do his transfer dealings as early as possible in the summer, so that the whole squad is in place for him to work with when the players return for pre-season training.
