Representatives of Loic Remy have reportedly claimed that Fabio Borini's refusal to leave Liverpool was the real reason behind their client's failure to complete a move to Anfield.
The French striker underwent his medical earlier this week and appeared to be on the brink of a switch to the Reds from Queens Park Rangers for around £8.5m.
However, the deal fell through on Sunday, with reports claiming that Remy had failed his medical, but the player's team have stated that Borini's decision to fight for his place with the Reds is why the QPR forward hasn't moved, according to Sky Sports News.
Liverpool were looking to offload Borini for around £14m to Sunderland before they brought in Remy, but the Italian wants to remain on Merseyside.
Reds manager Brendan Rodgers will now reportedly pursue other alternatives.
