“I know it’s a difficult window for the transfer market and if a player is coming to help us I am happy.
“But the club is doing that and I am going to wait.”

“Timo Werner, RB Leipzig, would be the perfect Liverpool player,” he tweeted.
“Contract till 2020. They will probably sell him this summer.
“Klopp will for sure go for this one. Bayern and Dortmund too… of course.”
