Liverpool have given him the green light to leave and his agent revealed that the Milan giants have shown interest in him.

Mascherano is on loan at Liverpool from West Ham and the latter put a £17m price tag to let him go permanently.

But the Red Devils' bosses announced that they do not intend to keep the 23-year old midfielder.

“Liverpool haven’t made any offer at all for Javier and it is likely that he will move to Italy next season,” agent Walter Tamer told Football Italia.

Juventus were linked with the player but they turned their attention to Mohamed Sissoko who will surely be cheaper and is set to put pen-on-paper next week.
