Liverpool striker Robbie Fowler's agent has played down reports linking his client with a move to the United States.
Fowler, 31, is out of contract at Anfield in the summer and has been linked with a move to Major League Soccer with New England Revolution.
Revolution coach Steve Nicol claims he has spoken to the former England striker about a move Stateside, but Fowler's agent George Scott has denied that there has been any contact with his client.
"He has not had a conversation with Steve and I don't think they could afford him anyway," Scott told BBC Radio Five Live.
"If he was to think about moving, Qatar or Dubai could be an option."
Previously, Nicol had said: "We'd be interested in Robbie. But at the moment the first thing is the financial side.
"We've spoken, but as of yet there's nothing been settled. He's really just dipping his foot in the water here. It's something he's thinking about.
"He's getting his ducks in a row. Whether he gets a contract at Liverpool or whether he moves on, he's dipping his foot in the water."
