It’s been a fair transfer window for Liverpool this summer, with the Reds strengthening their squad with the additions of Darwin Nunez, Fabio Carvalho, and Calvin Ramsay.
However, the midfield has been left untouched, much to the displeasure of their fans. Things got even worse recently, with injuries to the likes of Harvey Elliot, Thiago Alcantara, and Naby Keita leaving the team lacking depth in the middle of the park.
This has led to supporters bombarding the club with calls to make more signings over the last couple of weeks. With the transfer window set to close in less than 72 hours, those calls have become even louder, prompting a response from Jurgen Klopp.
At a press conference ahead of the Merseysiders’ Premier League clash with Newcastle, the Liverpool manager urged the fans to stop their transfer pleas and said:
The tactician went on to state that he doesn’t decide the club’s transfer budget while reminding the supporters of how they have overcome similar situations in the past. He said:
Liverpool will face Newcastle United tomorrow
The Reds will come into the game high on morale after slaying Bournemouth 9-0 last weekend (August 29). However, Newcastle United are an entirely different team and will pose a totally different challenge tomorrow (August 31)
The Magpies showed their pedigree as they played a 3-3 draw with Manchester City at Saint James’ Park on August 21. Klopp’s side will definitely need to be at their best to defeat Eddie Howe’s side.
