Jurgen Klopp told Liverpool need three players in this key position

The Merseysiders need three midfield players in the summer window to make the team a “great side”, according to Chris Waddle.

Disappointing end to campaign

Liverpool finished in fourth spot on the Premier League log after finishing five points ahead of FA Cup winners Chelsea in the race to secure a UEFA Champions League place.

The Reds have finished in the UEFA Champions League place in consecutive years under German tactician Jurgen Klopp to highlight their impressive progress under the tactician.

The 18-time Premier League champions lost 3-1 to Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League final last weekend following Loris Karius’ disappointing display.

The Reds will be hoping to challenge newly crowned Premier League champions Manchester City next season, even though they finished 25 points behind the Pep Guardiola tutored team.

Midfield reinforcement required

Jurgen Klopp was short on midfielder’s in the UEFA Champions League encounter in the absence of England international Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain as a result of injury.

Liverpool had German star Emre Can on the substitute bench following his return from a persistent fitness issue in the lead up to the continental final showpiece.

Former Tottenham player Waddle named three recruits that the Reds need to make this summer transfer window.

Naby Keita is set to join the Liverpool squad this summer window.
