“I have no intention of leaving Turkey, Turkish football has taught me a lot,” Kjaer told Fotospor.

“I have improved to have more responsibility, some of the matches I have played are like something I haven’t experienced anywhere in the world.”

Liverpool are expected to strengthen their defence over the transfer window after they sold Mamadou Sakho in January.

The Reds have conceded the highest number of goals in the Premier League’s top six (36).

Kjaer has been one Fenerbahce’s top performers this season. The Denmark international has one assist and three goals to his name after 33 apperances for the Yellow Canaries.
