Interesting Insight from Klopp on Fekir deal, we just didn’t have the money to get both Ali and him, not sure where these quotes are from or if verified though:
😲 Jurgen Klopp has admitted that had #LFC signed Nabil Fekir in the summer of 2018, then the club wouldn't have been able to afford Alisson Becker.
🗣️ "We all know the story around the Champions League final. We had to estimate, to judge, how [Karius] would deal, how the public would deal with that. We were all hoping he could become stronger after that, maybe it can be a turning point into a good direction. But then all of a sudden we heard then that Ali is on the market.
🗣️ "It was my absolute dream. When you dream or think about the team, you set it up from the back. And that was the moment we said: ‘Okay, we have to try it’.
🗣️ "The interesting part is that we were close to signing Fekir. And if we sign Fekir, we don’t have the money for Ali. It was obviously a pretty important decision for the future of LFC!"
