Liverpool have turned down initial approaches from Leeds and Monaco for Takumi Minamino... while Atalanta register interest in signing midfielder's team-mate Divock Origi

Liverpool have rejected initial approaches from Leeds United and Monaco for midfielder Takumi Minamino.

The Japan international has made 18 appearances for the Reds this season, however just a third of them have seen him named in the starting XI.

The 27-year-old has scored four goals in five Carabao Cup appearances this term and netted twice in eight top-flight games, but reports suggest the Reds have no real desire to offload him.

It is also understood a substantial offer would need to be submitted for the Reds to deliberate the potential sale of a player signed from RB Salzburg in January 2020 for £7.
