# Klopp is a big admirer of Rashford and Son, claims journalist

Jurgen Klopp is a ‘big admirer’ of Marcus Rashford and Heung-min Son, according to the *[Independent](https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/transfers/liverpool-transfer-news-mbappe-sancho-havertz-summer-melissa-reddy-a9314306.html)*‘s Melissa Reddy.

Both players have been respective talismen for Manchester United and Tottenham this season, often producing in the final third while those around them have struggled.

Rashford [scored 14 goals and registered four assists](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/300299/Show/Marcus-Rashford) in the Premier League this season before picking up a long-term injury, while Son has [seven apiece](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/91909/Show/Son-Heung-Min) to his name.

Reddy [states](https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/transfers/liverpool-transfer-news-mbappe-sancho-havertz-summer-melissa-reddy-a9314306.html) that it is very unlikely that Liverpool would be able to sign either of Rashford or Son, due to them being unavailable to the Reds, but that the powers-that-be at Anfield are fans of both, regardless.

### Read Liverpool Verdict

Under different circumstances, namely Liverpool not being in direct competition with United and Spurs, I think both Rashford and Son would be exciting additions.

Both have pace and a goal threat in their armoury, not to mention an ability to thrive both centrally and out wide.

Son would be particularly perfect for Liverpool, in my opinion, acting as a hugely effective squad player who could dovetail with Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino, either coming in for one or even playing alongside all three in a 4-2-3-1 formation.

Hard-working, technically gifted and extremely humble, all of these characteristics would fit right in with Klopp’s ideology.
