Christian Poulsen's agent has revealed he expects the Denmark international to complete his move to Liverpool next week.
The Reds are thought to have targeted a move for Juventus midfielder Poulsen as a direct replacement for wantaway star Javier Mascherano.
Juve are believed to be willing to offload Poulsen as he does not figure in new coach Luigi Del Neri's long-term plans.
Anfield boss Roy Hodgson is a big admirer of Poulsen and confirmed his interest in the defensive midfielder earlier this week.
Positive
Poulsen's represetative, Jorn Bonnesen, has held talks with Liverpool over a possible deal and he is confident the move could be wrapped up next week.
"It won't take more than a week before this is sorted out." Bonnesen told Ekstra Bladet.
"It might be already in the beginning of next week. Christian Poulsen is Roy's man.
"He will be playing as defensive midfielder at Liverpool. I returned home with a good and positive impression."
