Brendan Rodgers says that there have been no offers for Andy Carroll and insists that he is not looking to push him out of the door.
The striker has been heavily linked with a move away from Liverpool after claims that he did not figure in the plans of new boss Rodgers, with both Newcastle and West Ham keen.
West Ham are reported to have failed with a £17million bid, while Newcastle have tried to take him back on a season-long loan with a view to a permanent move.
However, Rodgers says that he is unaware of any bids for the player and has dismissed claims he wants to move him on before the start of the new season.
When Rodgers was quizzed over whether there had been any bids, he replied: "Not that I am aware of. Obviously I'll know more when we get back.
"There has been a lot written about Andy, but you saw today he's happy to be here and he's worked very well since he's been here.
"The reality is he's still a Liverpool player, he can fit into how I want to play, and he's happy here.
"I'm certainly not wishing to push him out of the door."
