Klopp rules out further Liverpool arrivals – reaction to injuries or sales

Patience required at Núñez

After the commitments of Darwin Núñez (23), Fábio Carvalho (19) and Calvin Ramsay (18) for a purchase value of more than 85 million euros, coach Jürgen Klopp has ruled out further additions to Liverpool FC. “As long as we don’t have any injuries or sales, our squad stands. Hopefully there won’t be any so Liverpool fans can focus on other things,” the coach said in an interview with the TV channel two weeks before the start of the season.Sky Sports“. The Reds are guests on Matchday 1 at newly promoted Fulham.

With the three transfers, the team’s defense, midfield and attack were strengthened. Meanwhile, ten players have left the club, including top sale Sadio Mané (30) for 32 million euros in the direction of Bayern. In total, the Reds have generated €80.7m with departures, bringing the transfer minus to €5.1m. Across the league, six clubs currently have a better value. For comparison, last summer Liverpool had a deficit of over €10m and was in a similar position (eight) in the same ranking. When asked about the transfer activities of the league rivals, Klopp said: “I can’t say that the others have made a big mistake in the transfer market so far.”

In the previous week, on July 16 to be precise, the Premier League broke the billion mark for purchases faster than ever. With his €75m move to Liverpool, Núñez is the most expensive transfer in the English House of Lords this summer, while only Aurélien Tchouameni (22) cost more worldwide. After the Uruguayan failed to score in his first friendlies, he was quickly criticized by his own fans. “He’s a really nice guy, loves being here, our Spanish teammates help him a lot and he’s already learning English, working hard to understand the basics – it’s all going in the right direction,” said Klopp.

Klopp on Núñez: “Forward with his skills will need time”

“The group we have is the best I’ve ever had in terms of settling in for newcomers. A striker with his skills will take time because it’s different from what we had before,” Klopp emphasized. “We need time to get used to each other, which is absolutely fine,” said the coach. Therefore, it makes no sense to assume that Núñez is “already at his best” so soon after his move. In any case, Liverpool “have a different style of play than Benfica”. Núñez found an answer to the criticism in the friendly at RB Leipzig (5-0) on Thursday when he scored four goals.
