Jurgen Klopp explains why Liverpool is not jealous of Man City's buying power



[ad_1]

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp says he's not jealous of Manchester City's buying power.

The Reds are entering the 2019-2020 campaign as European champions, determined to defend their crown and overthrow City in the Premier League.

Klopp's men will face six fronts this season. The German Cup, the League Cup, the UEFA Super Cup and the FIFA Club World Cup are also up for grabs.

However, only the 17-year-old Dutchman, Sepp van den Berg, arrived this summer.

The city itself has added only one name after last season's national domination, although Spanish international Rodri has come from Atletico Madrid for a club record of 62.8 million pounds.



Klopp does not believe that Liverpool has to spend a lot this summer

The Spurs, finalists in the Champions League, broke their transfer record with the signing of Tanguy Ndombele. Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Barcelona have all invested heavily with huge expenses and Juventus has strengthened its team with Aaron Ramsey – on a big contract – and Matthijs de Ligt, wonder of Ajax, for 68 million from £.

However, Klopp insists that he is only concerned about keeping his own house in order and is satisfied with the investment in his team.

"I can not comment on what other teams are doing," Klopp said. "I do not know how they do it. We have to pay bills. Sorry! Everyone has to pay bills; we have to pay bills.

"We invested money in this team. Now, it seems we are not. But we are not in this imaginary country where you get what you want.

"You can not do it constantly.



Klopp did not want to block the path of the young Brewster

"It seems that four clubs in the world can do it permanently. Madrid, Barcelona, ​​City and PSG. No matter what they need, they do it.

"You can not compare that, that's the situation.

"This is not a criticism. I know how people will take it, whether I'm jealous or whatever. I am not at all jealous!



The Klopp team has completed its pre-season tour in the United States and will face Napoli on Sunday

The Reds will face Napoli in Murrayfield, Edinburgh on Sunday before heading to Switzerland for a training camp – before meeting Lyon in Geneva on Wednesday.

They will meet Pep Guardiola's side at Wembley in the next weekend's Community Shield, before starting the Premier League season against the new Norwich promoted the following Friday.

Klopp's team, which lost Daniel Sturridge and Alberto Moreno after the departure of their couple at the end of their contract, was reinforced by the return of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and the emergence of Rhian Brewster – much appreciated by Klopp.

We do not expect that they will make large sums of money before the transfer deadline of August 8th, Klopp seeking to retain the stars already at his disposal.

However, as he continues to evolve on his side, he admits that this may not always be the case.

"This year is not the end of the CFL," he continued. "Next year, there will be another transfer window.

"This team is really good and we have invested a lot.

"Now we have to work that. You can not hope we do not draw Leicester home on a snowy field with five new recruits.

"There is no guarantee with that. There is no guarantee.

"There will be some middle games – and we still have to win, but that does not mean we need different players.

"It just means we need a team ready that day. And that's what we have to do. We must make sure of it.
