Samuel Eto'o will have more talks with Liverpool this week, according to reports.

The veteran Cameroon striker is reportedly keen to stay in the Premier League, with Everton and West Ham also interested in the 33-year-old.

Eto'o is a free agent after leaving Chelsea at the end of last season.

The former Barcelona man's representatives reportedly held talks with Anfield officials earlier this week over a one-year deal worth £135,000 a week.

Eto'o could become Liverpool's seventh signing of the summer after Emre Can, Rickie Lambert, Adam Lallana, Lazar Markovic, Dejan Lovren and Divock Origi as they look to continue strengthening their squad after the £75m sale of Luis Suarez to Barcelona.

Another player who will soon complete a switch to Anfield is Seville left-back Alberto Moreno.

A transfer worth an initial £12m was agreed for the 22-year-old was agreed last night.
