Liverpool were quick to distance themselves from rumours linking Fabio Capello to Anfield.
Fabio Capello, having already expressed an interest in succeeding Steve McLaren as England boss, has been linked with Liverpool this week.
Current boss Rafa Benitez’s public row with Reds co-owners George Gillet and Tom Hicks over the availability of transfer funds was cause for concern at the club. The Americans were said to be aware of Capello’s availability.
However, Benitez has apparently shown remorse after the spat, with the situation unlikely to go any further. The club has acted quickly to quell the rumours.
Spokesman Ian Cotton said: "This story is complete nonsense."
61-year-old Capello is currently out of work since being sacked by Real Madrid after winning the Spanish title last season. Chief Executive Rick Parry was adamant that no talks had taken place.
"It is absolutely, completely and utterly untrue. Capello has not contacted us and we have not contacted him."
