Liverpool are reportedly set to cut Rhys Williams' loan at Swansea short amid his lack of game time with the Championship club this season.
Williams, 20, emerged from the Reds' academy to make 19 senior appearances last term and was hoping to play regular first-team football after joining Swansea until the end of the campaign.
However, Swans boss Russell Martin has so far afforded him just four starts in the league, along with one in the Carabao Cup.
As a result, Goal claim Liverpool are now planning to recall the young defender from his loan spell as they feel his development would be best served operating as a fifth-choice centre-back under Jurgen Klopp.
