Liverpool’s move for Queens Park Rangers’ striker Loic Remy has collapsed, as a result of an undisclosed reason.

The ‘Reds’ are yet to comment on the reasons behind their rethink but it is understood there has been some niggles with the France international’s medical.  Remy, 27, flew to the United States, where Liverpool are presently honouring their pre-season tour, last Monday.
The Merseyside club were believed to have activated the £8.5m release clause in Remy’s contract.
The Frenchman, who was part of the France squad that reached the quarter-finals of the 2014 World Cup, waited all through last week for the final confirmation of the deal.
