Liverpool have pulled out of talks with Borussia Dortmund over the sale of Divock Origi.

The Liverpool Echo says Origi's hopes of securing a move to Borussia Dortmund appear to have been dashed.

Liverpool have ended talks with the Bundesliga outfit who were unwilling to meet the £27million asking price.

Dortmund wanted to sign Origi on a season-long loan but the Reds were adamant they would only consider a permanent transfer.

Liverpool insist their valuation is realistic with Wolves prepared to pay £22million plus add-ons for Origi earlier this summer.
