Liverpool have Southampton bid rejected

 Shane Long celebrates after scoring the fourth goal for Southampton
Liverpool have had an approach for Southampton striker Shane Long rebuffed by the south coast side.
Kop boss Jurgen Klopp was eyeing a shock £8million swoop for the Republic of Ireland ace to bolster his injury-hit frontline.


But Saints are determined to keep Long – who has scored eight goals this season – despite the £4m bargain buy of fellow frontman Charlie Austin from QPR over the weekend.
Southampton have been a favourite shopping destination for the Anfield club in recent seasons, with Adam Lallana, Dejan Lovren, Nathaniel Clyne and Rickie Lambert all moving from St Mary’s to Anfield - as did Steven Caulker, who halted a season’s loan to Ronald Koeman’s men from QPR to join the Reds.

The Hampshire side could however cash in on top-scorer Graziano Pelle – wanted by Italian giants Juventus.
