Wataru Endo has been the topic of a shock supply from Marseille, however an replace from Fabrizio Romano on Monday afternoon would appear to recommend that Liverpool needn’t fear about shedding the midfielder simply but.
It was final evening {that a} report from The Athletic got here to mild that the Reds had rejected a bid of just below £12m from Roberto De Zerbi’s aspect for the Japan worldwide, though the Italian switch reporter subsequently outlined that the method had really been made a couple of weeks in the past.
Talking on his eponymous YouTube channel at present, Romano outlined that the Ligue 1 aspect have since moved on to different midfield targets, with two by the door already and one other more likely to arrive within the coming days.

He said: “On Endo and Liverpool and Marseille, the method from Marseille to Liverpool was in June earlier than they signed Ismael Kone and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg.
“Now they’re totally different targets, and Marseille are assured they’ll shut the take care of Inter for Valentin Carboni this week – mortgage with purchase possibility.”
Simply because the Reds had been opportunistic in touchdown the Japanese midfielder from Stuttgart final August, Marseille tried to tug off a equally stealthy coup for the 31-year-old this summer time, however LFC rightly stood their floor and stated no.
With the Ligue 1 outfit promptly switching their focus to different targets, it very a lot seems as in the event that they had been simply chancing their arm with Endo somewhat than severely pursuing him, and it must be protected to declare that they’re extremely unlikely to return in for him any time quickly.
