Liverpool plot Jay Rodriguez swoop

Liverpool will reportedly make a last ditch attempt to sign Southampton striker Jay Rodriguez, according to The Mirror.

The England international has been deemed fit this week, and is available to play regular first-team football for the remainder of the campaign.

The Mirror reports the likes of Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur have shown interest in signing up the former Burnley man, but Liverpool are hopeful of stealing the deal with a late bid for the player's services.

Liverpool host Bolton Wanderers in the fourth round of the FA Cup.
