    The agent of Liverpool's Christian Poulsen has ruled out a move to FC Copenhagen for the out-of-favour midfielder, insisting he will remain at Anfield.

    Uncertainty surrounds Poulsen's future after he failed to make an impact on his debut season with the Reds, having been signed by former boss Roy Hodgson last summer.

    The Denmark international is contracted until June 2013, but was only used on six occasions by Kenny Dalglish last term, not featuring again after the 1-0 UEFA Europa League defeat to Braga in early March.

    The arrival of midfielders Jordan Henderson and Charlie Adam this summer has fuelled speculation that Poulsen is on his way out of the door, with reports surfacing that Danish giants Copenhagen are chasing his signature.

    However his agent, Jorn Bonnesen, has dismissed such rumours, insisting the 31-year-old is staying put on Merseyside.

    He told Onside.dk: "No, Christian Poulsen is not on his way to FC Copenhagen and he has not spoken to them. Christian Poulsen's future is at Liverpool."

    Former Juventus man Poulsen has travelled to Asia with the rest of the Liverpool squad for their pre-season tour. The midfielder was on target during the Reds' 4-3 friendly win over Guangdong Sunray Cave on Wednesday.

    Erm... Yeah. I still expect him to be gone by the end of the transfer window. To be fair to the lad, he did score yesterday!

    Your thoughts?

    Sign him up! His goal yesterday proves that he can take Ngog's place as our back-up striker.

    Solution: Sell Ngog. make Poulsen back up to Carroll and bring in Djimi Traore to coach him as a striker.

    I tried to like Poulson, I hoped he'd do well but he never did. It was like he was trying to be rubbish to spite me. he'll go this summer. if not then there will be a bidding war next summer when there is only 12 months left on his contract

    Spearing? That's where I see problems. I'd happily have him as cover for Lucas but we don't need two people to cover Lucas in the event of him getting injured. I still believe that if a decent bid comes in for him, he'll be gone.

    Yeah! I can't see him staying he's just not good enough.
