Southampton rejected Liverpool’s improved bid of £41m plus add ons for 19-year-old midfielder Romeo Lavia on Tuesday.
The Saints have remained unmoved in their assessment of Lavia, who they value at £50m.
Klopp’s side had come back to their negotiating table on Tuesday following the rejection of their initial £37m bid last week.
