Liverpool make third bid worth £31m for Brazil ace Alex Teixeira
LIVERPOOL have had another bid for Alex Teixeira rejected by Shakhtar Donetsk, according to reports.
Alex Teixeira wants to join Liverpool
The Reds are determined to land Teixeira but have already had a £24million offer knocked back by the Ukrainian club.
It is claimed a second bid of £28m was also snubbed.
Shakhtar are willing to sell their star striker but only at their £38m asking price.
The Reds are in need of a goalscorer after Christian Benteke's drought extended to eight outings following his Capital One Cup semi-final appearance against Stoke in midweek.
Daniel Sturridge, Divock Origi and Danny Ings are all out injured.
