OWEN BECK admits it was flattering to be wanted by Celtic but insistds his long-term goal is to Kop a top-team slot at Liverpool.
The Scottish champions wanted to buy the left-back last month after the Reds recalled him from his initial loan spell at Dundee.
But Jurgen Klopp killed off their hopes when he handed Beck his Liverpool debut against Bournemouth, which meant the youngster had played for two teams and couldn't turn out for a third this season.
Liverpool were always reluctant to sell the Welsh Under-21 cap but with Andy Robertson now back fit they have given him the green light to return to Dundee for the second half of the season.
Beck said: "People speak about interest from other clubs but I try to focus on the club I'm playing for. That's not really my job to listen to who is interested in me.
"I was happy at Liverpool but when the opportunity to come back to Dundee was there it was a no-brainer. It's nice if teams areinterested in you, it's a positive thing.
