# Liverpool poised to turn down Hannover approach for Woodburn

Liverpool are set to reject Bundesliga side Hannover 96 in their approach to sign Ben Woodburn on loan.

That is, according to the [Daily Mail](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-4771778/Liverpool-set-reject-Hannover-96-s-bid-Ben-Woodburn.html) today, who state that the Reds are keen to keep hold of the promising youngster, who has impressed massively in pre-season.

Woodburn has featured regularly for Jurgen Klopp’s side as they gear up for the forthcoming Premier League season, displaying several mature performances and adapting to a wide range of different positions.

However, consistent first-team opportunities are appearing to be unlikely this season, which has prompted Hannover to express a keen interest in taking Woodburn off Liverpool’s hands on a temporary basis.

The 17-year-old, who is naturally a forward, is held in extremely high regard at Anfield and is a player that surely has a big future with Liverpool.

Hannover are also said to be keen on landing Reds youngster Ryan Kent, with the winger high in demand this summer.
