Boss Brendan Rodgers has widened keeper search to include 22-year-old who started all 3 matches for Australia at the World Cup in Brazil
Liverpool have identified Australia goalkeeper Mathew Ryan as a possible rival for Simon Mignolet.
But the Reds' boss Brendan Rodgers is prepared to wait until the summer to sign a new goalkeeper if he feels he cannot get what he wants this month.
Ryan, 22, has impressed for Bruges since joining the Belgian side in 2013 and is currently playing for the Socceroos in the Asian Cup after starting all three matches at the World Cup in Brazil.
Liverpool's transfer committee have also proposed Fiorentina's Neto , but Rodgers is not sure if the Brazilian is the long-term answer to his goalkeeping problems.
Rodgers is hamstrung because he has little cash to spend this month and may persist with Mignolet until the end of the season when he will have more options.
Anfield boss Rodgers would be taking a risk and Mignolet's confidence was hit when he axed him last month.
Rodgers only brought the former Sunderland stopper back when understudy Brad Jones injured his thigh and the Australian did not impress during his spell in the first team.
Liverpool have picked up in recent weeks and Rodgers feels they can maintain this momentum and challenge for silverware, despite the uncertainty in goal.
