Al-Ettifaq intend to test the resolve of Liverpool with an offer for Jordan Henderson.
The Reds captain is a target for new Al-Ettifaq coach Steven Gerrard. The pair played together at Liverpool before Gerrard left for LA Galaxy.
Al-Ettifaq are ready to back Gerrard in the market with a mega spending spree now prepared.
And Henderson is a first of many targets on the Saudi Pro League's shopping list.
Gerrard has two years to run on his contract, but L'Equipe says Gerrard is hoping to convince his former team-mate to join him in Saudi Arabia.
