Dirk Kuyt's agent has questioned Liverpool's hopes of landing the striker and insists the Dutch international forward will not be moving to the English Premiership unless they meet his current club Feyenoord's valuation.
The 25-year-old has been strongly linked with a move to Anfield as the Reds look to increase their striking options ahead of the forthcoming season.
Newcastle United are also reportedly interested in the player but his agent Rob Jansen believes he will remain at Feyenoord as both clubs seem unlikely to match the Eredivisie side's €20million valuation of the Dutch international.
Jansen, speaking to AD Sportwereld, said: 'Dirk will not be signing for Liverpool any time soon. He is also not negotiating with any other English club for the matter.'
Of Liverpool's and Newcastle's reluctance to meet Feyenoord's valuation of Kuyt, he added: 'Both clubs do not want to pay what Feyenoord wants. If foreign clubs don't have the money to buy Kuyt then he will stay with Feyenoord, it's that simple.'
