Just weeks after shunning interest from Real Madrid, winger Jermaine Pennant looks set to turn his back on a proposed move to Hull City to battle for a future at Liverpool.
The 25-year-old has found himself out of favour this season and has started only two Premier League games, with a further appearance from the bench. Last month it was reported he had priced himself out of a move to the Bernabeu due to his wage demands and now he does not seem to be attracted by first team football at the KC Stadium.
Pennant's agent Sky Andrew has insisted he has no interest in swapping Premier League clubs.
"Jermaine is still talking to Liverpool," Andrew told the Hull Daily Mail. "He does not want to play for another club in the Premier League and wants to stay with Liverpool."
Stoke City and Wigan Athletic were also said to be tracking the former Arsenal wide man but were scared off by Liverpool's £4 million valuation.
With Pennant's contract up in the summer he is free to sign a pre-contract agreement on a free transfer to any club in the summer but favours staying at the Merseyside giants. It is rumoured that boss Rafael Benitez is considering offering him a 12 month extension.
It has also been speculation that AC Milan may make a move in the summer should he be a free agent.
