Liverpool transfer news
The recently-retired Cameroon international has impressed at Upton Park this season after a difficult couple of years warming the bench at the Nou Camp, and is likely to be available on a permanent transfer in the summer.
Song first shone in the Premier League at former club Arsenal, but could now join their rivals Liverpool as Brendan Rodgers seeks a top quality signing in midfield.
Liverpool are set to bid farewell to Steven Gerrard at the end of the season and Song could be a useful replacement in that part of the pitch.
