Liverpool have told Chelsea that Spain striker Fernando Torres is not for sale at any price.
Chelsea are reportedly keen to lure Torres from Anfield after his stunning debut season in the Premier League.
A bid of around 50 million pounds (62 million euros) was expected to test Liverpool's desire to keep the former Atletico Madrid star, but a spokesman for Reds co-owner Tom Hicks insisted there was no chance Torres will be sold.
“It is simply beyond comprehension. There is no circumstance in which Torres will be sold,” Hicks' spokesman told The Mirror.
“Why would the owners invest so much money in supporting the manager, to then undermine that support? It is ludicrous.”

I’m a die hard liverpool fan. Chelsea should stop dreaming of luring Torres to bridge, that boy will not be there next Shevchenko (ie. there next victim).
