BARCELONA starlet Cristian Tello has insisted he will stay at the Nou Camp until at least January.
The highly-rated forward was also wanted by Rodgers on a one-year loan, but he has opted to stay with Barca in an attempt to force his way into the side.
Tello, 21, has confirmed he will sit tight for at least one more transfer window.
Liverpool Football Club have reached an agreement with SC Heerenveen for the transfer of winger Oussama Assaidi, subject to the player passing a medical.
The 24-year-old, who has scored 20 goals in 68 appearances for Heerenveen in the Dutch Eredivisie, will now undergo a medical at Melwood.
Assaidi has represented his native Morocco 22 times since making his international debut in February 2011.
One of the highlights of his young career came in a 6-2 win over FC Twente in 2010 when he scored a hat-trick and assisted the other three goals.
Check out the video of Assaidi in action below and stay logged on to Liverpoolfc.com for details of further developments.

Right-footed, good crosser from the right and takes on players 1v1 from the left. 8 of 10 goals he scored in the 2nd half, might be a good impact player. Some Morrocan LFC fans on twitter, claiming he's more prime than Tello but can get frustrated easily when things don't go his way. Adapting to EPL is something Rodgers is risking but fans will apparently love his dynamism on the left wing, that is a bit bare with Sterling still raw. Gerets, coach of national Moroccan team uses him as a wide forward and rates him...supposedly the player that ousted out Taarabt during the African Nations Cup to being Morocco's talented young player to watch for. The obvious choice would have been QPR’s Adel Taarabt but Assaidi is the player who surprised onlookers the most with his performances. He burst onto the scene in the 4-0 qualifying thumping of Algeria, a game in which he replaced Taarabt on the wing, and has become a mainstay in the starting line-up ever since. A gifted dribbler and distributor." Tabish A. - Club Analysis and Special Features Writer for LFCTS
Oussama Assaidi's stats for SC Heerenveen last season: 29 matches (27 starts) I 10 goals and 8 assists.
Oussama Assaidi is better than Cristian Tello. Scores and assists easily.
From what people say, he's a very quick, skillful, direct winger. Something we lack!
Guardian are reporting that the fee for Oussama Assaidi is £2.4million.
Oussama Assaidi will earn £21,000 per week wages and will sign a 4-year contract at Liverpool FC. (Daily Mail)

Liverpool Football Club have today completed the signing of Oussama Assaidi from Dutch side SC Heerenveen.
The 24-year-old winger passed a medical at Melwood before signing a long-term deal with the club.
Assaidi, who has represented Morocco 22 times, told Liverpoolfc.com: "I'm very happy to play for this big club. The first time I spoke to the coach I had a good feeling. I had offers from other big clubs but I've been waiting for this moment.
"The coach gave me a good feeling. It will be a dream to play with these big players and I hope training will help me to be a good player here.
"When I watch Liverpool it's always a good atmosphere, the fans are fantastic and I'm happy to be here."
Assaidi scored 20 goals in 68 appearances for Heerenveen in the Dutch Eredivisie.
He becomes Brendan Rodgers' third signing as Reds boss following the arrivals of Fabio Borini and Joe Allen.
Rodgers said: "We're delighted with the signing, he's a young player who has done very well, in particular in the last couple of seasons, in Holland.
"He fits our style perfectly, he's an exciting player who is very good in one versus one situations and I think he's a player that will excite the crowd.
"We're not expecting too much too early, he needs time to adapt but we're delighted he's chosen to come here over a number of other clubs.
"As I said, I'll look forward to helping his development and I hope he'll become a very good part of this club."
