Borussia Dortmund sporting director Michael Zorc has told Liverpool “not to waste their time” submitting a bid for Christian Pulisic in January.

Reds boss Jurgen Klopp is in the market for attacking reinforcements next month and is a big admirer of the USA international winger.

Liverpool had an £11million offer for Pulisic rejected last summer and retain an interest in the talented 18-year-old, who has scored twice in 10 Bundesliga appearances so far this season.

However, Zorc is adamant that Pulisic is not for sale and that his future remains at the Westfalenstadion.

“We have communicated very clearly that we won’t sell Christian and that he’s very much part of our plans,” Zorc told Bild.

“Liverpool don’t need to waste their time.”

The Reds have seen their attacking options depleted by injuries to Philippe Coutinho and Daniel Sturridge. Klopp will also lose Sadio Mane to the Africa Cup of Nations next month.
