Posted by

Jurgen Klopp admitted there was a possibility that the club could engage in further transfer business this summer in response to the litany of injury concerns that have arisen ahead of the start of the league campaign.

The German’s pre-match press conference comments were relayed on Twitter by The Athletic’s James Pearce after Ibrahima Konate was the latest squad member to join the likes of Caoimhin Kelleher, Curtis Jones and Co. on the sidelines.
