Arsene Wenger has brought in Mathieu Debuchy from Newcastle to replace Bacary Sagna, with Carl Jenkinson expected to be his deputy.
That has left the path clear for Manquillo to move to Merseyside, having already rejected Getafe, Rayo Vallecano and Marseille.
It remains uncertain whether Manquillo is leaving Atletico on a permanent or temporary basis.
