Liverpool have been long-term admirers of the Gremio forward, according to reports.
According to a report from Italian media outlet Citta Celeste, Lazio have made a firm offer to sign Gremio attacker Luan, meaning that Liverpool will have to act fast if they want to sign the Brazilian.
The Reds have been linked with a move for the 25-year-old star since last summer, according to the Mirror, and have performed extensive scouting missions on the Gremio ace.
Jürgen Klopp arguably has the most dangerous forward line on the continent at his disposal at Anfield, but if one of his famous three gets injured, he has little in reserve.
Luan would be a fantastic addition to the Liverpool squad, but they must act fast if they want to secure a deal for the mercurial Brazilian.
According to Italian publication Citta Celeste, Lazio have made the first move for the 25-year-old, and have offered €15 million (£13.2 million) for his services.

They do go on to suggest that the Brazilian club will hold out for closer to €25 million (£22 million), however, so the door is still open for Liverpool to make their move.
Luan can play anywhere along the front-line, but he is most comfortable when operating in the number 10 position.
He has chalked up 39 goals and 25 assists in 145 games for Gremio – a decent return from the attacking midfield position.
Luan was once dubbed the ‘new Neymar’ by Spanish media outlet Mundo Deportivo, and that just goes to highlight his incredible quality.
He possesses all of the qualities needed to be a success in England, and for just £22 million, he would be well worth a punt from the Merseyside outfit.
