Liverpool refuse to meet Atletico Madrid's demands for Jan Oblak
And now according to the Daily Mirror, Atletico are demanding more than £80m for Oblak which is his release clause.
The report suggests Liverpool will simply refuse to cave in and meet the asking price.
Over the weekend, reports had suggested that the Merseysider's had lodged an opening bid for Oblak, but it fell short of their asking price.

The Mirror claim that a move for Alisson remains complicated.
It is intimated that they could turn their attentions elsewhere and target Saints’ McCarthy, although that could be difficult too as he is after a new deal with his current contract expiring at the end of next season.
So far, Klopp has signed Fabinho from Monaco and he is hoping to clinch a deal for Lyon’s Nabil Fekir.
