Christian Poulsen's agent has opened negotiations with Liverpool but is not sure if an agreement will be reached.
Poulsen has emerged as a transfer target for the Reds this summer, with Roy Hodgson confirming his interest in the Juventus midfielder this week.
Liverpool have spoken to Poulsen's representative Joern Bonnesen and are reported to have offered a three-year deal.
However, it does not look like anything will be finalised in the near future after Bonnesen returned to Denmark.
"I don't know if we will reach an agreement," the agent told Tipsbladet.
"I will go home without a contract and we will work from there.
"This is not something which will be resolved in two minutes."
