​Trabzonspor confirm no Liverpool offer for Omur

Trabzonspor president Ahmet Agaoglu says Liverpool have not made an offer for Abdulkadir Omur.

The 19-year-old, dubbed the 'Turkish Messi', has been linked with Liverpool in recent weeks, despite the club's plethora of attacking talent.

The Liverpool Echo reported this week that the Merseyside club were not interested in signing Omur this month, and Agaoglu has confirmed those reports.

"If the numbers we want come from the lower teams of the European leagues, this offer is not [acceptable] in our opinion," Agaoglu said. "[Omur] deserve[s] to play at the highest level in Europe.

"[We] did not receive an official offer from Liverpool but there are offers from other clubs."
