Liverpool have reportedly dismissed the possibility of Rhian Brewster moving on loan to Leeds United.

Having only featured in the EFL Cup this season, Brewster is expected to be allowed to sign for a Championship club in the January transfer window.

While Swansea City are regarded as the clear frontrunners, Leeds are said to have expressed an interest in the England Under-21 international.

However, The Athletic claims that Liverpool fear that Brewster would end up in a similar situation to that of Arsenal loanee Eddie Nketiah.

Despite an indication that he would be provided with regular action, Nketiah has made just one start and 15 substitute outings at the second tier.

Liverpool are said to favour loaning Brewster to a team where he is likely to start each match.
