Olympique Lyon president Jean Michel Aulas has raised his asking price for Nabil Fekir.
Last night, Aulas has not ruled out going back to the negotiating table with Liverpool over Fekir - but admits discussions have ended for now. The Lyon president has also named the price he wants for the French playmaker, which is set at nearly £15million more than what the Reds were initially set to pay.
Fekir was set to complete a £48.4million deal to move to Anfield before Lyon announced they were withdrawing from negotiations.
In an interview with Bein Sports, Aulas declared he was looking for €70m (£61.5m) for the playmaker.
"Nothing is ever completely over in the footballing world," he said. "Personally, I am no longer in discussions with Liverpool. At the moment, we are waiting for France and Nabil to have a fantastic World Cup.
"If Nabil was to start in the World Cup final, I am thinking about Nabil, about his future, about his family, because I especially like his dad and the entire environment."
