Serbian forward looks set for return to Belgium
Liverpool forward Milan Jovanovic appears to be edging closer to an Anfield exit.
The 30-year-old joined the Reds on a free transfer last summer from Standard Liege but struggled to hold down a regular first-team place.
Jovanovic scored twice from a total of 18 appearances, 10 of which came in the Premier League.
And he made just one start after Kenny Dalglish took over from Roy Hodgson for the second half of the season, failing to make the squad for the final four months of the campaign.
The Serbia international's wife has already expressed her preference to return to Belgium and Anderlecht are seemingly in pole position to secure his services.
Negotiating
"We're currently negotiating with Jovanovic but we couldn't achieve an agreement (yet)," said a spokesman for the Belgian side.
"We're very much interested and the player would like to come.
"Anderlecht are due to contact Liverpool today."
Jovanovic is one of a number of players surplus to requirements under Dalglish and has been told he can leave.
However, the stumbling block so far has been finding a club willing to come close to matching the player's current wages, which are believed to be around £60,000-a-week.
