Liverpool Football Club has today strenuously denied claims that John Arne Riise cashed in on the club's Champions League triumph by selling his medal on eBay.
In response to unsubstantiated reports in certain sections of the press this morning, the club would like to let it be known that these allegations are total rubbish.
"There is absolutely no truth whatsoever in this story," says club spokesman Ian Cotton. "Like his team-mates, John is very proud of the part he played in the club's Champions League success and it is ludicrous to even suggest he would sell his winners medal."
