Liverpool are unlikely to complete the signing of Borussia Dortmund winger Christian Pulisic prior to Wednesday's transfer deadline.

The Reds tabled an initial offer of £11million for the talented 17-year-old, who has also attracted interest from Stoke City.

However, the Bundesliga outfit are unwilling to sell in this window and Liverpool are prepared to wait to secure his services.

Unless Dortmund change their stance, Pulisic is expected to stay put this season.

The USA international, who has two years remaining on his contract, is highly rated by Jurgen Klopp .

Pennsylvania-born Pulisic joined Dortmund's Academy in January 2015 when Klopp was still manager there.

Pulisic made the breakthrough to the first-team squad under Thomas Tuchel last season and went on to make 12 senior appearances, including a short cameo in the Europa League quarter-final first leg against Liverpool.

Klopp views him as one of the future rather than the present and will continue to monitor his progress.
