Liverpool manager knew he had to rebuild in the centre but he was not expecting to have to replace Henderson and Fabinho
Jürgen Klopp said little on the unwanted disruption to his reconstruction of Liverpool’s midfield, uncharacteristically, but enough to confirm that Jordan Henderson and Fabinho can leave with his blessing. It is a cold reality that the money on offer from Saudi Arabia suits not only the players involved.
“I don’t know that anything is decided, which means nothing to say in the moment,” the Liverpool manager said after his team’s first pre-season friendly against Karlsruher on Wednesday. “In the end all of these decisions are made by me. And because I respect the players a lot, it’s usually with consent. It was in this case and it is all fine.”
