Monday morning's Liverpool transfer talk news roundup:

Liverpool have reportedly been dealt a huge blow in their pursuit of Werder Bremen forward Milot Rashica.
The Reds have been tipped to move for the Kosovo international in recent months, while Aston Villa have also been credited with an interest.
Rashica is expected to leave Werder Bremen after the club staved off relegation from the Bundesliga on the final day of the season, but the 24-year-old is supposedly favouring a move to another German club rather than the Premier League.
According to Bild, Rashica has turned down an approach from Liverpool as he looks to secure a move to RB Leipzig.
The report claims that Leipzig are hoping to negotiate a lower fee with Werder Bremen, with Rashica's current release clause set at £33m, and the winger has just under two years left to run on his current deal.
Rashica amassed eight goals and seven assists from 28 Bundesliga outings during the 2019-20 campaign.
Liverpool end interest in Wolverhampton Wanderers forward Adama Traore?

Liverpool have reportedly ended their interest in Wolverhampton Wanderers winger Adama Traore.
The Spaniard enjoyed a breakthrough campaign at Molineux during the 2019-20 season - registering four goals and nine assists in the Premier League for Nuno Espirito Santo's side as Wolves finished seventh in the table.
Traore has been linked with a host of top European sides following his impressive displays for Wolves, but the West Midlands outfit are supposedly desperate to keep hold of the winger ahead of next season.
According to the Daily Mirror, Jurgen Klopp is now eyeing up other options after Wolves made it clear that Traore is not for sale.
The report claims that the Liverpool manager has now set his sights on Leicester City's Harvey Barnes, with Klopp looking to bolster his attacking options before the Reds look to defend their Premier League title next season.
Manchester City, Barcelona, Real Madrid and Juventus have all been credited with an interest in Traore in recent months.
