Liverpool give three reasons after ‘rejecting £11.8m offer’ from Marseille for 2023 signing

Premier League giants Liverpool have rejected a bid from Marseille for Japanese midfielder Wataru Endo, according to reports.

Endo, 31, joined from Stuttgart for around £16million last August.

He played 43 times across all competitions as the Reds won the Carabao Cup in Jurgen Klopp s last season.

The Japanese international was brought in by Klopp for midfield depth following the sales of Fabinho and Jordan Henderson, and ended up being a very useful signing.

He grew into his role at Anfield after a relatively slow start improving every week as he adapted to Premier League football.

Endo has not been linked with a transfer away from Liverpool this summer, however, a bid from French giants has reportedly come in out of the blue.
