Brendan Rodgers distances Liverpool from Arsenal's Theo Walcott

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers dismisses "speculation" linking Arsenal winger Theo Walcott to Anfield.

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has branded the club's reported interest in Arsenal winger Theo Walcott as "speculation".

The Merseyside outfit are believed to be keen on launching a bid for the England international, who has yet to sign a new deal at the Emirates, in the January transfer window.

"There is nothing to say [about Walcott]," said Rodgers. "It is all speculation about many players. January is always a difficult window. You don't get too many top, top players."

Rodgers, who leads his side into a clash against Newcastle United this Sunday, has been open about his desire to clinch reinforcements in the winter window due to his current depleted squad.
