Liverpool rejects Chelsea bid for Fernando Torres

Liverpool have rejected an offer for star striker Fernando Torres from Premier League rivals Chelsea.
The 26-year-old has struggled for form so far this season but has scored nine goals in 26 appearances for the Reds.
A Liverpool spokesman says Chelsea have made a bid for Fernando, which has been turned down because the player is not for sale.
The offer is believed to be in the region of 35 to 40 million pounds and comes after a previous bid by the London club in May.
With the transfer window open until Monday, there is still time for the Blues to increase their offer for the Spaniard should they wish.
