Cologne goalkeeper Timo Horn has revealed he turned down the chance to move to Liverpool earlier in his career.

The talented stopper has developed into one of the finest goalkeepers in the Bundesliga during his time at the RheinEnergieStadion and at the age of 24 could make further improvements to his game.

Speaking to Archie Rhind-Tutt of The Independent, he admitted having the chance to move to Anfield during his youth football days.

"At the age of 15 or 16, Liverpool were very interested in me," he said. "But I didn't go there because I felt the goalkeeping schooling in Germany was much better, and I had enough examples, for instance Ron-Robert Zieler who came back after a year [at Leicester], and that's why I stayed in Cologne.
