Assaidi has scored four goals in 24 appearances on loan this season and Hughes admit that he'd like to keep the Moroccan at Britannia Stadium permanently.
The 25-year-old joined Liverpool in the summer of 2012 from Dutch club Heerenveen and made 12 appearances for the Reds last season.
Hughes said: "We like Ossie and if we could come to an arrangement with Liverpool we would like to bring him here.
He's got a good relationship with Marko Arnautovic - they make a nice couple!
"He's a valuable player and I think Liverpool recognise that. I think there's been tentative enquiries but nothing concrete yet.
"He's done really well here. It's certainly helped him and Ossie's certainly helped us.
"He's got good friends here. He's got a good relationship with Marko Arnautovic - they make a nice couple! Those things are important to players. If they're happy in an environment then that can help if you're trying to bring them to a club."
