Liverpool has no plans to create fireworks on the transfer market due to the corona crisis. That says manager Jürgen Klopp, who seems to see Timo Werner slip through his hands.
The striker of RB Leipzig is now well on its way to Chelsea for sixty million euros. “There are a lot of great players on this planet. Werner is a good player and so is Kai Havertz. It’s about the right time and the right chance. Everything has to coincide,” Klopp told Sky.
“Six or seven weeks ago we didn’t even know if we could play at all this year,” the German continues. “Now we are pretending that everything is back to normal. But it is not. We use this short period of time that we have been allowed to play football again, but after that we have to wait and see. We cannot pretend that everything will be alright in the future.”
Klopp suggests that the Premier League leader does not think it is a good idea to pay a lot of money for purchases now. “There are all kinds of rumors in England about who will buy Manchester United and which players Chelsea will choose. But at Liverpool it is quite quiet, I can say. We have to take it seriously if you want to do business normally and depend on income , but you don’t know how much you will earn … Especially because you don’t know when fans are welcome. “
“At the moment, all clubs are losing money. Then we should also talk to players about turning in wages, but at the same time we would buy a player for fifty or sixty million. You have to explain that,” concludes Klopp, who on June 21 Premier League resumes with Liverpool with an away game against Everton.
