Feyenoord ace Dirk Kuyt will sign for Liverpool within the next 48 hours, claim newspaper reports in the UK today.
It is reported that the player has a £10.3million escape clause in his contract which would explain why Liverpool are refusing to even consider meeting Feyenoord's demands for a fee closer to £14million.
Four previous bids from Anfield are reported to have been rejected by Feyenoord. They included various amounts of cash along with combinations including Jan Kromkamp and Jerzy Dudek. A final cash offer of £8.25million was also reportedly rejected.
Insider sources have responded accordingly.
