Atletico Madrid have rejected an approach from Liverpool to sign Matheus Cunha.

AS says the Reds have been pushing to sign the Brazilian forward, but efforts have been rebuffed by the La Liga club as they have no intention to sell.

They also suggest Liverpool's move for Luis Diaz has almost been 'celebrated' among the hierarchy at Atletico Madrid as they've 'overcome the first assault' for the player.

It has been suggested Atletico have 'no intention to sell' the 22-year-old and Diego Simeone 'has plans' for the player.
