Jurgen Klopp Goes on Extraordinary Rant After Question About Transfers

• Jurgen Klopp went on an extraordinary two-minute rant after being asked about transfers
• The Reds signed Cody Gakpo, but it is highly unlikely there will be further transactions in the winter transfer window
• Klopp insists it makes no sense to sign new players while others are out injured

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp recently cut an exasperated figure as he went on an lengthy ramble when asked about the club’s transfers.

Speaking during the pre-match press conference ahead of the Brighton game, Klopp went in on a journalist after a question on whether the Reds were planning on spending more money in January.

Cody Gakpo remains the only major signing in the winter, and Carl Markham, a reporter with the Press Association, boldly decided to ask Klopp whether Liverpool were not getting players who could solve their current woes this season because the problem was ‘financial’.

Klopp’s full rant

Before he could finish his question, Klopp interjected, and the rant kicked off:

'Carl, really, honestly Carl, I have done, I think, six-thousand press conferences with Liverpool and you were pretty much part of 5,999 in different seats obviously but you were always there. If you want to write, or whatever, today you don't write, today you just record, come on... Now I have to tell you again the money story? Really? Really? I have to tell it again? " he said as seen on ESPN.

'What could be the reason that we have money like crazy but we don't buy the players even when they are available? That's what you think of me? After all the years? So why are you asking the question when the answer lies on the table? I really don't understand that, I really don't that. “ The Liverpool gaffer lamented.

Klopp went on to insist that Liverpool’s primary problem was with injuries, not the need for new signings.

Their latest injury blow came in the form of Darwin Nunez, who missea four training sessions this week and will likely be absent from the trip to Brighton.

Diogo Jota and Luis Diaz are long-term absentees, while forward Roberto Firmino is still yet to resume first-team training.

The game that made Casemiro want to sign for Man United

Sports Brief also reported on what made Casemiro want to sign for Manchester United back in the summer.

Under new manager Erik Ten Hag, United made the worst possible start to a league campaign as an opening 2-1 defeat by Brighton was followed by a more humiliating mauling at the hands of Brentford.

On August 13, the Red Devils completely collapsed in the first half as goals from Josh Dasilva, Mathias Jensen, Ben Mee and Bryan Mbeumo gave Brentford a 4-0 lead after just 35 minutes.
