Not one to rest on his laurels, Klopp is reportedly eyeing an array of central midfielders and quality defenders to strengthen the Reds’ squad depth. This ambitious strategy is already tipping Liverpool as a promising contender for the next Premier League title.
Despite their booking for UEFA Europa League football in the following season, Klopp’s excitement for the club’s summer endeavours is palpable. In his own words, the German maestro spoke of the energy garnered from the final weeks of the season. “I’m not ready for a holiday and I don’t need it,” Klopp remarked. “Of course, I will be busy on the phone this summer, but that will be fine and I’m happy to do that, and we will see.”
