It was reported that the forward had also asked manager Rodgers to be allowed not to travel on the club's pre-season tour as question marks over his future with the Liverpool rumbles on.
Raheen Sterling has been the subject of two failed bids, the second reported to be worth £40m, from Manchester City this summer and it is understood senior figures at the Etihad Stadium are continuing to monitor the situation at Anfield.
It has been claimed that Manchester City are now poised to make contact with Reds again, and are possibly readying a bid of £50m, which would equal the Reds' valuation, but there has been no comment from the Etihad club.
Mario Balotelli has been left out along with Fabio Borini and Jose Enrique, with the trio due to continue their pre-season preparations at Melwood, although their absence raises questions over their futures with the club.
Also absent from the squad are Coutinho, Emre Can and new signing Roberto Firmino, who have been given additional time off after international duty over the summer.
Liverpool are due to fly to Bangkok on Sunday ahead of their first friendly against a Thai All Stars .
