Klopp wasn’t Liverpool’s first option !

The 19-year-old winger, who first broke into the Liverpool side under former boss Brendan Rodgers, is expected to feature in England’s U21 European Championship qualifier against Kazakhstan at the Ricoh Arena on Tuesday.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has no plans to poach any of his former players from Borussia Dortmund and insists he is not interested in what money is available in the January transfer window.

Although Owomoyela was rarely a regular under Klopp, he was a part of the squad that won back-to-back German league titles in 2010/11 and 2011/12, before he moved to Hamburg where he retired in 2014.

Fellow Liverpool youngster Jordon Ibe also started for England in Coventry, lasting 65 minutes before being replaced by Sunderland’s Duncan Watmore.

“I do like the look of Klopp, he’s a good appointment”, he said.

Refresh this transfer rumour!

The former Bayer Leverkusen man scored three goals in his last two appearances for Liverpool U21’s during pre-season. “Progress is not possible without a bit of time”.

A few of the players Klopp’s Liverpool are linked to played under the German manager during his time at Dortmund, whereas others have been on his radar for many years.

Rising squad Tottenham Hotspur (3-1-4, 13 points) is set to host Liverpool FC (3-2-3, 12 points) and its new manager, Jürgen Klopp, in a Premier League 2015-2016 match at the White Hart Lane on Saturday, October 17.

Rauball has little doubt Klopp can achieve just that and does not think the pressure will cause the ex-Dortmund coach any problems.

“We haven’t lost in the league since the first game of the season”. “We knew that full well (when we accepted the job)”.

“His players would play [their hardest] for him as he can get the best out of them and I am sure he will be the same at Liverpool”.

Obviously, a World Cup winning centre-back in Hummels or a lethal wide man like Reus would be any manager’s dream, but there’s another name in play at the Westfalenstadion that would suit the Reds down to the ground. If it isn’t a match made in heaven, I don’t know what is.
