Timo Werner's representatives are said to have told Manchester United and Chelsea to forget about a move for the player - because he has already agreed personal terms with Liverpool.
The 24-year-old has had a sensational campaign for RB Leipzig, scoring 25 goals in the Bundesliga and a further four in the Champions League.
Liverpool are the team who have been most strongly linked with his signature, with Reds boss Jurgen Klopp known to be a big fan of the player.
But as Mirror Sport revealed last week, the two clubs are yet to find an agreement over a transfer fee, with Liverpool said to be unwilling to pay anything less than Werner's £50m release clause.
