Lille president Gerard Lopez has confirmed that Liverpool are in talks with Nicolas Pepe over a summer move.
The winger could become Liverpool's big summer signing although Lopez also admitted that there is another club who have made an offer for him.
The 24-year-old is currently at the African Cup of Nations with Ivory Coast and Lopez said the bids were received prior to the tournament.
But he insists that none of them were from PSG despite the French champions being heavily linked with a move.
He told rmcsport: "I know there have been discussions with the player but not with us as a club, Liverpool has players in his position, and I read that he could go there if players leave. I am not particularly focused on Liverpool. But it is true that there have been discussions with agents.
"We had two offers before the African Cup of Nations, we'll see after that, my position was to see if we could not do something before it, we had two proposals before it, I had two clubs.
The agents with whom we have good relations have asked us a little time to look at other options.
It is not the Lille who discusses alone. The player has the right to have preferences. At the beginning of the tournament, he said that being in a competition like this and having your mind to something else, it's complicated.
"It is a primary career choice.In his head there are things going on. From that we add discussions with coaches and appointments between two training with agents, it will not do it. We agreed to wait until the end of the tournament."
As well as Liverpool, Bayern Munich have also been linked with a move but it's understood Pepe prefers a move to the Premier League.
