Madrid: The Anfield side will sign the Real Madrid midfielder on a season-long deal subject to a medical, after manager Brendan Rodgers revealed the paperwork has been finalised.
Sahin, who has won 31 caps for Turkey, becomes the third new arrival for new manager Brendan Rodgers following the permanent signings of striker Fabio Borini from Roma and midfielder Joe Allen from Swansea City.
The 23-year-old signed for Real Madrid last summer after playing a major role in the Borussia Dortmund side which won the Bundesliga title in 10/11, picking up the Bundesliga's Player of the Season award in the process.
Real Madrid head coach Jose Mourinho has expressed his desire to see Sahin get more playing time in another of Europe’s top leagues, but ultimately wants to keep the player in the long term. Arsenal were also interested in signing the midfielder but the deal broke down in later stages.
