Liverpool reportedly have no interest in signing Vasco da Gama starlet Talles Magno, despite recent reports to the contrary.
Speculation from Brazil last week claimed that the Premier League champions had made contact with the 18-year-old and were closing in on a deal to bring him to Anfield.
However, the Evening Standard reports that those rumours are false and that Liverpool do not have plans to pursue Magno, who has been dubbed 'the next Neymar'.
The highly-rated forward was part of Brazil's Under-17 World Cup-winning squad last year but is yet to earn a call-up for the senior side, meaning that a work permit would be difficult to secure for a switch to the Premier League.
Paris Saint-Germain, Juventus, Lazio and Roma have also been credited with an interest in bringing Magno to Europe.
