Meanwhile, according to reports from Spain, Klopp seems to be already planning for next season as he is eying a move for Marco Asensio. While Real Madrid want Sadio Mane, Liverpool have put a €200 million price tag on him.

The other option is to put €50 million in cash and swap Marco Asensio, a player that is liked by the German tactician. However, Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is not keen on letting Asensio go as he eyes the Spaniard as a future gem for the Blancos.

Meanwhile, Jurgen Klopp hopes to reach an agreement with the Galacticos as he sees tremendous potential in the former Mallorca star.
