Reports emerged on Monday that the German goalkeeper was close to signing a two-year loan deal with Turkish side Besiktas.
Karius was not part of Liverpool’s squad as Klopp’s men won 2-0 at Crystal Palace in the Premier League on Monday, though he did attend the game.
The 25-year-old became first choice at the club last season but was replaced by Brazil international Alisson, who joined for a world-record fee from Roma, after making two crucial errors against Real Madrid in the Champions League final.
However, in a news conference after his side’s hard-fought victory at Selhurst Park, Klopp denied Karius is on his way out of Anfield.
“Nothing to say,” Klopp told reporters. “Nobody told me anything on a transfer.”
Simon Mignolet was on the bench for Liverpool at Palace, while the club allowed Danny Ward to join Leicester City during the transfer window.
