Jose Mourinho said that there was a "request" on Jürgen Klopp to win a first trophy at Liverpool next season because of the club's high level of investment.
Liverpool was the biggest investor in the transfer window, recruiting Alisson for £ 67m, Fabinho (£ 43.7m), Xherdan Shaqiri (£ 13m) and Naby Keita for £ 52m. They also spent £ 75m on Virgil van Dijk in January
Klopp, who was Liverpool's manager since October 2015, had previously stated that he was against paying high fees for Manchester players and manager United referred to this.
The problem is that you have to invest well and, honestly, I think that they have done very well because every player that they bought are quality players and I am happy for them ", he said. "And I'm also happy to smile and see that you can change your opinion and change as a person, it's funny [meaning Klopp].
"It's OK But maybe this season, finally, you demand that they win.Now you have to ask and tell the team – with the investments you make last season, which you did in January that you do now, it will probably be the Premier League record this season, a team that was a finalist in the Champions League – you have to say that you are a great candidate, you have to to win. "
Mourinho also said that he knew Anthony Martial's decision to return home for the birth of his child earlier this week.
"When these are personal reasons, everyone badyzes the correct way," Mourinho said. "And when a man is going to be a father – in this case, it's the second time that he's going to be father – and he decides that it's very important for him to leave, no one's going to be father – has the right to stop him from leaving. "
Mourinho also confirmed that defender Matteo Darmian wants to leave United
" Matteo wants to leave and when a player wants to leave, if the good offer comes he You have to try to be human and let the player follow his instinct but not at any price, "he said, before talking about his lack of options right. At present, the offers we have received for Matteo are not even close to being accepted. [Antonio] Valencia is injured and he will be injured for the start of the Premier League, Diogo Dalot is also in the recovery phase, he will not be ready for the start of the Premier League. Ashley Young is a possibility to play right back, but he is on vacation
"I do not know if he thinks he's back for that and will be available to the team or stay on vacation Victor Lindelöf is a possibility, he's not a right-back but there is a possibility – he starts training next Monday.I will send people to Manchester to train with Victor, it makes no sense for him to come to the United States. "So, if Matteo leaves, he leaves because the good offer comes in and if it stays, it may be important to us. "
