Liverpool Football Club have agreed terms for the transfer of Javier Mascherano to FC Barcelona.
The Spanish club have now been given permission to speak to the Argentina midfielder.
The transfer appears to be nearing completion, with the Argentina captain now in the Catalan city to put the finishing touches to the deal.
Mascherano joined Liverpool from West Ham in 2007, initially on a loan deal that was turned into a four-year contract in 2008.
Barcelona failed in an attempt to lure him to Spain last summer but on his return from the World Cup in July, Mascherano made it clear he wanted to leave Anfield, saying his wife could not settle in England.
Since taking charge of Liverpool in July, Hodgson has been eager to end the uncertainty surrounding Mascherano's future.
More than a year after he first asked to leave the club , the 26 year-old is expected to travel to Barcelona this weekend for a medical before signing a four-year contract worth around £90,000 a week.
Adiós.
