Liverpool's hopes of signing centre-back Josko Gvardiol this summer appear to be diminishing - after the player himself suggested that he is likely to stay with RB Leipzig.
The 21-year-old, who starred at the World Cup for Croatia in Qatar, has been the subject of intense transfer speculation with a trio of Premier League clubs all said to be keen to acquire his services in the summer.
Chelsea and Manchester City have both been linked with a move for the defender as well as the Reds, who could look to make changes to their rear guard options after an underwhelming season. But in a recent interview with Net HR, Gvardiol appeared to rule out a switch to English football in the coming months.
