Ajax manager Frank de Boer has ruled himself out of replacing Kenny Dalglish at Liverpool but has said he is "honoured" to be approached.
De Boer is one of a number of candidates being considered for the Liverpool hot seat following the sacking of Dalglish but has said he is happy in Holland.
The 42 year-old has led Ajax to two consecutive Eredivisie titles since joining in 2010.
"I am honoured by the request, but am only just started with Ajax," he told De Telegraaf.
"In Amsterdam we're on a new path along with the club and Wim Jonk and Dennis Bergkamp, my colleagues in the technical heart.
"Thats why I stay loyal to Ajax in the coming years."
Liverpool are understood to have made a request to speak to Ajax in the last 48 hours.
De Boer replaced Martin Jol at Ajax in December 2010, initially on an interim basis before being given the position on a full-term basis.
He had previously spent time as Holland's assistant manager at the 2010 World Cup and won five Eredivisie titles and one Champions League trophy during a distinguished playing career.
