Liverpool have had a bid rejected for Spanish international Albert Riera according to reports on Sky Sports today.

The midfielder who is currently playing for Espanyol has been linked with the Merseysiders since the January transfer window. Reports emerged today that Liverpool had a bid turned town by the La Liga outfit consisting of a part exchange deal with Sebastian Leto and £9.5 million.

The Espanyol President said earlier this week in an interview, "If a club wants to sign Riera then the price will be £19 million, and that figure will not change.". Riera made very suspect comments during the week putting doubts over his future at the club.

The Espanyol President added,"We are very disappointed with the quotes made by the player last week... If a player wants to leave then they should speak with the club, not the press."
