Cisse denies done deal

Early reports from France suggested that the Auxerre striker had already completed a medical in secret before putting pen to paper on a five-year deal, but he has denied such claims.

"I want to move to Liverpool and I'm sure I'll play at Anfield next season but I haven't signed anything yet and it would be impossible for me to do so because I'm still under contract with Auxerre until 2005," Cisse told reporters.
