MAMADOU SAKHO has been told once and for all there is NO CHANCE of rescuing his Liverpool career.
Jurgen Klopp insists none of his first team squad will be sold when the window opens next month.
But that does apply to the French outcast, 26, who has not played since being sent home from a pre-season tour for a variety of discipline breaches.
The centre back — a cult figure on the Kop — does not train with senior players at Melwood and works with the youngsters at the club’s academy in Kirkby.
He has not even featured in the EFL Cup.

Seconds after Klopp said no-one would be sold, fans groups were retweeting his quote together with a picture of Sakho.
But despite putting the boot in on West Ham’s hopes of landing Daniel Sturridge, the Anfield boss insisted Sakho was a different case.
Klopp, whose side travel to Bournemouth tomorrow, said: “There is no thought to sell any player from the first team squad.
“But, of course, Sakho is not involved in the first team. Nothing has changed.
“Do you really think I would have said Sakho will not be sold in winter? You don’t have to check, you knew it before.”
