Alberto Aquilani's agent has rubbished reports that Liverpool are weighing up a bid for the Roma midfielder.
There have been rumours suggesting that Rafa Benitez has identified the 25-year-old Italy international as an ideal signing should Xabi Alonso leave for Real Madrid.
However, the player's agent, Franco Zavaglia,insists there is absolutely no truth in those suggestions and says Aquilani is simply focusing on recovering from the ankle injury that left him sidelined for much of last season.
"Alberto to Liverpool? Don't talk nonsense," he told Romagiallorossa.com.
"There's no need to even speak about it because there is nothing real there.
"The player just extended his contract and is working towards recovery and giving his best for Roma."
Aquilani is under contract until 2013 and boss Luciano Spalletti this week tipped the player to recover his best form next season.
