Liverpool have reportedly snubbed Aston Villa's bid to sign striker Andy Carroll with Darren Bent offered in exchange.
Reports in the Sunday Express claim Villa chief Alex McLeish has approached his Reds counterpart Kenny Dalglish with a plan which would see reported Anfield target, Bent, make the move to Merseyside with Carroll going to Villa Park.
However, it appears that Dalglish turned down the offer because he wants to keep faith with the £35million capture from Newcastle, who has struggled for fitness, form and goals since joining 12 months ago.
It remains to be seen if McLeish will step up his attempts given that England international, Bent, was on target in Villa's 1-1 draw against Everton on Saturday and both player and manager have always insisted that his future is at Villa Park.
