The agent of Feyenoord captain Dirk Kuyt says Liverpool are favourites to land the striker.

Rob Jansen told BBC Sport that it was "no secret" that the Reds were eager to sign the 25-year-old - but warned they face stiff competition.
"There are some clubs interested in England and in Spain," Jansen confirmed.
Earlier this summer Kuyt said he would be keen on a move to Newcastle, while Tottenham, Everton and Arsenal have all been heavily linked with the frontman.
Jansen said he expected Kuyt to leave Holland before the start of the new season and hinted that England was his favoured destination.
"He has a special feeling for the Premier League," Jansen said. "But there are some major clubs playing on a world level in Spain too."
