Report: Liverpool close in on Victor Moses loan deal

Liverpool are reportedly close to completing a loan deal for Victor Moses after agreeing a £1m fee with Chelsea.

Moses has fallen down the pecking order at Stamford Bridge following the arrivals of Willian and Andre Schurrle.

According to The Observer, Chelsea have given Liverpool permission to finalise a deal after initially being reluctant to loan him out to a Premier League rival.

The Nigerian international moved to Chelsea only last summer, joining them for £9m from Wigan Athletic.

He could still have a future at the London club, though, as there is no clause in the deal for Liverpool to make the move permanent.

With the transfer window closing on Monday, Liverpool have also been linked with late deals for Mamadou Sakho and Tiago Ilori.
