Akin claimed earlier in the week that he had already spoken to Liverpool chiefs about a possible Anfield switch and that a transfer looked likely.

However Liverpool today rubbished his claims. "We don't know where these claims have come from and why he is saying those things," said a club spokesman.

As Akin was born in Belgium, a move to England would be much easier than if he only held a Turkish passport.
