According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Liverpool are increasing their interest in Fiorentina striker Dusan Vlahovic.
Manchester City and Atletico Madrid are other options for the Serbian striker.
The 21-year-old has rejected to renew his deal with Fiorentina. His current agreement expires in 2023, so the Italians have to sell him next summer to get a sizeable fee.
“Vlahovic has not accepted our huge contract extension proposal. We’ve been trying for months, but it’s over," Fiorentina president Commisso said earlier.
And according to Gazzetta dello Sport, Fiorentina would demand €90m to sell him this summer.
€90m looks a bit too much, even for a talented striker who has scored 35 goals in 92 goals for the Serie A side.

'FSG, move fast!': Fans react to talented striker Vlahovic's transfer update - his contract expires in 2023
Serie A striker Dusan Vlahovic has rejected a new deal from Fiorentina, indicating that he wants a move away next summer.
The talented striker's current deal expires in 2023 and he will be available for a cheaper fee in the transfer window. As per Tuttosport, the Reds are one of the clubs interested in signing him.
Vlahovic has 6 goals (in all competitions) already this season and scored 21 in the league in the last campaign. He is just 21 years old and is a physical beast - an excellent target-man.
Liverpool fans have reacted to reports of him being available in the summer:
Tahas_Takes (Twitter): "He's nothing like Firmino but a superb out-and-out striker who I believe can do very well in the Premier League. Liverpool should look into this, would be a terrific addition to this attack."
JamesBrown23: "Vlahovic would be the perfect replacement for Origi. Wanted him in the summer but our outgoings meant we were restricted in terms of funds available. We need at least one reinforcement in Jan and Dusan would be ideal. Especially due to AFCON."
MattRed4: "He’s close to Haaland level. Get him. What a player man. FSG, for once in your life, move fast!"
Jayasherredh: "Imagine Trent whipping in crosses for this big lad..oof."
It is unclear how much Vlahovic will go for next summer - Transfermarkt value him at £36.00m currently.
