Bayern Munich midfielder Mario Gotze has claimed that he has not received any contact from Liverpool regarding a possible move, despite reports claiming that manager Jurgen Klopp wants to bring the German to Anfield.
The World Cup winner, who has been out injured with a groin problem since October, is believed to be wanted by the Merseyside outfit in a £37.2m deal.
Gotze played under Klopp during his four-year spell at Borussia Dortmund, and while the 23-year-old has admitted that he will consider his future at the Allianz Arena, he has no plans to move to Liverpool this month.
"I can rule out a move to Liverpool this winter," Gotze told TZ. "I don't know where the rumours about Klopp and me are coming from. I have not heard anything. You should ask Klopp if he wants me at Liverpool. If he wants me, he should approach me.
"I have six nice months ahead of me. It is always annoying when you cannot play and cannot help the team. It is only normal that you think about things like that, but you have to look at the positives and build on those."
Bayern sporting director Matthias Sammer has described the rumours as "nonsense".
