Liverpool have rebuffed an enquiry from Swansea City for midfielder Joe Allen.

The Welsh outfit are keen to take the £15million midfielder back to the Liberty Stadium but the Reds have informed them that Allen is going nowhere during the current window.

With Liverpool still challenging on four fronts, Jurgen Klopp won’t entertain the prospect of losing the 25-year-old this month.

Allen, who came off the bench to grab a late equaliser against Arsenal last week, has found his opportunities limited since Klopp took over in October.

The Wales international has made seven starts under the German but just one of them has been in the Premier League.

Allen, who joined Liverpool from Swansea in 2012, will enter the final year of his contract this summer and recently admitted his long-term future is uncertain with no offer of a new deal on the table.

Asked about contract talks, Allen said: “That is something which has gone very quiet.

“I am not too sure really. I have made only one league start this season and I want to play more, I think that is obvious for any player in that situation.

“From my point of view it is about knuckling down, doing my job and giving my best, which I always do.”

Unless Allen becomes a first-team regular between now and May, a move away from Anfield this summer looks increasingly likely.

Swansea, who are now resigned to the fact they won’t land him this month, are expected to be among the bidders.
