Klopp defends Liverpool transfer policy as top four rivals spend big

Getting it right in the transfer market is never easy.

Even the best managers get it wrong sometimes, but for Liverpool’s Jurgen Klopp and outgoing sporting director Michael Edwards these have thankfully been few and far between.

It will bring comfort to Liverpool fans ahead of the January transfer window, with the club considering going into the market to make additions to the squad.

They have been linked with a ‘magician’ who plays for one of their Premier League rivals, while a player they passed up the opportunity to sign over the summer has been criticized in his new club.

The transfer window cannot come soon enough for Jurgen Klopp’s men, with three stars having injured each other in recent weeks.

Here are the latest Mirror Football titles in Liverpool.

The Reds could be without three key players for Arsenal’s visit to the Premier League on Saturday.

Sadio Mane and Jordan Henderson were both discharged from international duty with injuries, joining Roberto Firmino in the treatment room.

Liverpool captain Henderson scored and completed 90 minutes in the 5-0 victory over Albania on Friday, but returned to his club for further evaluation on an unspecified injury.

Mané, meanwhile, limped out of Senegal’s 1-1 draw against Togo on Thursday, although his injury was described as “nothing serious” by his international manager Aliou Cissé.

Firmino is sure to miss the game after sustaining a “serious” hamstring injury in Liverpool’s recent Champions League victory over Atletico Madrid. It is understood that he could be excluded until Christmas.

Dutch striker Donyell Malen has come under fire after a disappointing start to life at Borussia Dortmund.

The Reds were heavily linked with a summer move for the exciting young Dutch star, with Jurgen Klopp known to be in the market for offensive reinforcements.

But a move to Anfield did not materialize and Malen instead joined Dortmund as a replacement for Jadon Sancho.

And he has now been lambasted by his boss Marco Rose and Dortmund director of football Michael Zorc for his inability to adapt to the demands of the Bundesliga.

Reds could target Premier League ‘magician’

Ahead of the January transfer window, Leeds winger Raphinha is the favorite to join Liverpool if he decides to open his checkbook.

The 24-year-old has been a revelation since moving to Elland Road in October 2020, scoring 11 goals in 40 Premier League appearances.

His impressive form saw him make his Brazil debut last month and, injuries permitting, will be part of Tite’s squad for next year’s World Cup in Qatar.

He also had an impact on new team-mate Daniel James, who joined Leeds from Manchester United in the summer, after describing the Brazilian as a “magician”.
