Liverpool target Sardar Azmoun ready to remain at Rostov for now - agent

FC Rostov forward Sardar Azmoun is in no hurry to leave the club and wants to become the best striker in the Russian Premier League, his representative has said.

Last week, sources told ESPN FC that Liverpool were among a host of clubs monitoring the situation of the 21-year-old Iran international.

One source added that Azmoun would be keen on a move depending on the role in store for him at Anfield.

However, one of his agents, Mehdi Hagitali, has said Azmoun's strong working relationship with Rostov manager Kurban Berdyev means he is not focusing on a transfer.
