Tottenham have dropped out of the running for Galatasaray midfielder Arda Turan.
Fanatik says Gala's asking price is proving too rich for Spurs, with Rafa Benitez's Liverpool now clear favourite for the Turkey international.
Gala are reluctant to part with Turan, but will sell if an offer of £12 million or more arrives.
Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has also been linked with Turan - particularly in the event he is forced to sell Cesc Fabregas to Barcelona this summer.
Earlier this year, Turan confessed his dream was to play for Liverpool.
