Sporting Lisbon midfielder William Carvalho will not be arriving at Anfield in the near future, according to a senior journalist.
James Pearce of the Liverpool Echo (h/t the Daily Star's Alex Harris) said the highly-rated Portugal international is not on Jurgen Klopp's shopping list as he hunts for additions to his squad.
When asked in a question-and-answer forum if the powerful 24-year-old is on his way to Liverpool, Pearce stated: "He's not a transfer target for LFC."
Portuguese newspaper A Bola (h/t Metro) had reported Carvalho was set to move to Merseyside in a potential £26 million deal.
