Marko Arnautovic's agent has claimed that it was the striker who rejected a move to Old Trafford, rather than Manchester United pulling out of the deal.
The Reds were linked with a surprising move for the former West Ham and Stoke City forward in the summer transfer window - with reports claiming that United had a £7.5million bid rejected by Bologna for the 33-year-old.
United's interest in the player was met by widespread criticism from former players and supporters, which led the Reds to withdraw their interest in the Austrian attacker.
