Chime out sweet hymnals of glorified praise, for Sunday has brought with it yet another piece of evidence that Jurgen Klopp may be planning a January raid that would make even the most barbaric Viking salivate with anticipation.
Though admitting that Liverpool’s lack of finances could pose a problem while making purchases in the winter window, the beautiful German spearhead of the new look Reds brought speculation to a close on the notion of a pre-determined agreement between the Merseyside club and Borussia Dortmund, in reference to the purchase of his former players.
Completely and utterly operating in reckless abandon if he so desires, the “Normal One” discussed his potential plans for the transfer market on Saturday, to heightened excitement from the Liverpool fan-base.
Acknowledging the potential high price tags of some of his ex-players, the affirmation that they are open season for any suitor who can meet the clause is refreshing and revitalising for a group of supporters who have seen relatively sub-par purchases made in the last three years.
Two players who have been linked to Liverpool since the summer can be found in the space of Mats Hummels and Ilkay Gundogan. Shoring up the midfield will be a priority in the future, but Klopp admitted that unless the purchase is a necessity, he won’t be pursuing anything with a particular amount of vigor.
A veritable smorgasbord of raw talent, as well as, refined veteran players, the Dortmund squad could provide a feeding ground for a Liverpool side hungry to add some world-class talent to their roster. Every supporter will remember the deafening shouts for Marco Reus to make a move to Merseyside last season, and with Jurgen Klopp managing a Liverpool side producing consistently good performances, the possibility that a player of his calibre could head out of the mainland grows greater each day.
