RB Leipzig coach Ralf Rangnick has declared they won't be seeking to re-sign Ademola Lookman.
The Everton winger spent part of last season on-loan at RBL last season and was close to moving to the Germans last summer.
However, Rangnick concedes any move now is unlikely.
"I think it is very unlikely that it will be feasible now in the winter break to reasonably put together representative conditions. I do not think Everton gives him away," he said.
There's now an acceptance that Everton boss Marco Silva sees Lookman as a regular first team and as such RBL will have to look elsewhere for a new attacking signing.
