Roy Hodgson has revealed he has spoken to Inter Milan President Massimo Moratti and says the Serie A giants will not be attempting to sign any Liverpool players this summer.
The pair, who enjoy a long-standing friendship which dates back to Hodgson's time at the helm of the San Siro club, chatted earlier this week about speculation linking the likes of Javier Mascherano and Dirk Kuyt with moves to the Nerazzurri.
The Reds boss was pleased with the outcome of their discussion.
"I spoke to Massimo Moratti on Wednesday about the fact that they are not going to buy any Liverpool players, and Kuyt comes into that category," said Hodgson.
"I believe Inter were only interested in two of our players and they are not going to buy them. Moratti said they are not going to do that. Kuyt is not for sale."
