The head of the Liverpool, Jurgen Klopp, is keen to sell four of his first-team stars this summer as he looks to renew the team before the 2021/22 campaign. The Reds have conducted very minor transfer deals over the past year, keeping faith in the players who led the club to Champions League glory and Premier League.

If qualification for the main competition in Europe is not assured, several big stars could pass.
But regardless of where they end up in the table, Klopp he’s ready to part ways with his backup contingent.
The Sunday World claims that Joel Matip, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Xherdan Shaqiri and Divock Origi will be able to leave if the right offer comes in.
Matip has played more minutes than expected this season due to long-term injuries to Vigril van Dijk and Joe Gomez.
However, the 29-year-old has also spent some time in the treatment room, so Klopp you are looking for a more reliable challenger.

Meanwhile, there are also doubts as to whether Mohamed Salah will remain in Merseyside, especially if Liverpool do not qualify for the Champions League.
La Liga giants Real Madrid and Barcelona are interested in the Egyptian striker.
But the Sunday World claims that the heads of the Liverpool They are determined to do everything they can to keep their top scorer.
Former Liverpool defender John Arne Riise has blamed Klopp due to the bad streak of results of the club.
“I’m not a coach by Klopp’s standards and I can’t tell you what to do, but it seems like I could have done more to stop this streak,” Riise told Sunday World.
“They don’t have (Virgil) Van Dijk or (Joe) Gomez, who are fast and can cover balls overhead.
“They don’t have Fabinho and (Jordan) Henderson and (Gini) Wijnaldum in every game to win the ball in the middle, so I think they could have changed their tactics a bit.”
