Premier League

Klopp to keep his options open

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has revealed that he may look to strengthen his squad in the January transfer window.The Reds are challenging for the Premier League title this season and have only lost one of their first ten matches – at Burnley.

However, the former Clarets striker Danny Ings has been ruled out for the rest of the season because of a serious knee injury while Sadio Mane will be representing Senegal at the Africa Cup of Nations in the new year.

Former Borussia Dortmund boss Klopp is monitoring the situation, saying before Sunday’s match against Watford at Anfield: “We watch the market all the time and of course we need to be prepared for different situations and one of them is injuries.

“The African Cup of Nations we already knew about so we don’t need to be influenced or surprised by that, but it could be a moment when we approach the market.

“It’s not about how many strikers. Three strikers is enough, I think, but when Sadio is away we will be without a winger. We do not have many wingers, I would say.

“But it is a long way to go until January and that month is busy. If we get to the semi-finals of the League Cup it could be the busiest month of the year. We need to be prepared for this for sure.”

Liverpool, 10/3 to win the Premier League title this season, are 12/1 to thrash Watford 4-0 with Mane 21/20 to score at any time against the Hornets.
