"We have an agreement which allows us to talk to the player," said Rafa Benitez.
"He is on holiday, but we will talk over the next few days. I know the player's qualities very well. He is a very good footballer and now we need to see if he has the passion to play for our club.
"I don't think this will be a problem because he is a Liverpool fan, so I think it will be easy for him.
"I will be talking to him to express my ideas. He has the ability, the pace and the talent we've been looking for and now we need to talk about other things."
Liverpool offered just over £6m to Blackburn which has triggered an exit clause. Blackburn have conceded that they will lose Belamy if Liverpool and the player can agree terms.
