Wayne Rooney Man Utd testimonial ends in stalemate

Klopp hints at further summer signings
Jurgen Klopp has hinted he could bring another defender to Liverpool this summer after teasing that he has “no idea” if the Reds’ transfer activity is over.

Klopp has indicated he’s prepared to use James Milner there as cover after failing in a bid to sign Leicester City’s Ben Chilwell . However, other options are being considered. Germany international Jonas Hector has repeatedly been linked with Liverpool this summer but the Liverpool Echo understands that a move for the … [Read more...]
