The 28-year-old Republic of Ireland striker reportedly had a medical at Anfield on Monday and he could be confirmed as a Liverpool player within 24 hours.
The deal is expected to be worth around 18 million pounds (22.8 million euros), but could rise to around 20 million pounds depending on appearances.
Keane is well known to be a Liverpool fan and it is thought he will sign a five-year contract, effectively placing Peter Crouch, who has joined Portsmouth.
