Thursday morning's Liverpool transfer talk news roundup:
Liverpool 'put off by Adama Traore asking price'

Liverpool are reportedly unlikely to move for Adama Traore during this summer's transfer window due to the asking price placed on him by Wolverhampton Wanderers.
The former Barcelona youngster enjoyed an impressive 2019-20 campaign at club level, scoring six times and registering 12 assists in 54 appearances in all competitions.
Liverpool and Manchester City have both been credited with an interest in the 24-year-old during this summer's transfer window as the pair look to boost their respective attacks.
However, according to Calciomercato, the Premier League champions have been put off by Wolves' asking price, which is believed to be in the region of €70m (£64m).
The report claims that Juventus have been offered the chance to move for the Spaniard, but the Italian champions are also not prepared to meet the English club's valuation.
Traore has a contact at Molineux until the summer of 2023.
Report: Liverpool to delay signing Thiago Alcantara from Bayern Munich

Liverpool reportedly intend to hold off from signing Thiago Alcantara until the Bayern Munich midfielder officially becomes a free agent.
The Reds are considered the frontrunners to land the 29-year-old, who is valued at £27m by the Champions League winners.
However, with Thiago due to be out of contract in nine months, Sky Sports News reporter Dharmesh Sheth has suggested that Liverpool will delay making a move until next summer.
Spain international Thiago is allowed to sign a pre-contract agreement with a new club in January, with plenty of other teams expected to show an interest in the holding midfielder.
Thiago is believed to have been given extra time off by Bayern to make a decision over his future, though as things stand no offers have been tabled for the ex-Barcelona man.
Manchester United have also been tipped to move for Thiago, despite them bringing in Donny van de Beek from Ajax last week.
