Schalke defender Joel Matip will join Liverpool at the end of the season, according to the German club.
Matip, 24, is set to arrive on a free transfer when his current deal with the Bundesliga side expires in the summer.
The German-born player, who can play at centre-back and in midfield, has 27 Cameroon caps and came through Schalke's youth set-up.
He made his Bundesliga debut at the age of 18 and has made more than 200 senior club appearances.
Matip is the second signing of Jurgen Klopp, who took over as Liverpool manager in October.
Serbian midfielder Marko Grujic signed for the Reds in January for £5.1m on a four-year contract but immediately returned to former club Red Star Belgrade on loan for the remainder of this season.
