Jose. Enrique's situation is a bit complicated, the Spanish defender is only 29 years old, he is in the year of playing, the strength is still good, it stands to reason that there is no shortage of buyers, however, the problem is that Enrique has been injured since joining Liverpool, and after returning from a brief injury last season, now the old knee injury has been committed again, such a vitreous player, no team is willing to risk the introduction.

Jose. Enrique's contract with Liverpool expires at the end of the 2015/2016 season, and as things stand, it is likely that the contract will be automatically terminated when it expires.

What really worries Klopp is the vacancy in Liverpool's right-back position.

At right wing-back, Liverpool's main right-back last season was Glenn Brown. Johnson, the England player's contract expired in June, and the two sides chose to part amicably after negotiations. Johnson has joined Stoke City on a free transfer.

Some media outlets for Liverpool have not and Glenn. Johnson's contract extension has been questioned.

Klopp simply ignored these voices, in fact, last season Glenn. Johnson can indeed be regarded as conscientious in the position of right-back, but the English veteran is indeed limited in level, coupled with his advanced age, it is indeed not in Klopp's plan, and the two sides are good to get together and disperse, which is quite good.

Glenn. After Johnson's departure on a free transfer, Liverpool now have only one right-back, and that is Joey, who has just returned from injury and has been absent from the team for a long time. In addition, in this pre-season training camp, Klopp also temporarily called up youth team youngster Trent Alexander-Arnold to the first team.

However, it is clear that Flanagan will not be able to take on the role of a first-team right-back, and youth youngster Trent Alexander-Arnold is even more unlikely, and promoting youngsters to the first team for pre-season training is more of an opportunity to encourage and experience the atmosphere of the first team, and it is still too early to play in the first team.

Therefore, Liverpool's immediate priority is to bring in a right-back.

……

Jurgen Klopp wanted a right-back and Liverpool's scouting staff immediately recommended a player to him.

Nathaniel. Klein, 24-year-old right-back, now plays for Southampton FC!

Familiar or unfamiliar?

Yes!

It's Southampton again!

Familiar recipe, familiar taste!

When Liverpool is short of personnel and needs reinforcements, Liverpool's scouting team reacts almost subconsciously, and they will immediately turn their attention to Southampton to see if there is any wool on the sheep they have been staring at.

Over the years, Southampton's youth academy has produced many excellent players for the Premier League, Wenger has said that Southampton is a real football factory, they have continuously sent excellent players to other teams in the past ten years, in recent years, if you want to say which team from Southampton poached the most, it is definitely Liverpool, the media even joked that maybe Liverpool has been setting up a scouting department in Southampton.

Among other things, Liverpool poached their main centre-back Lovren from Southampton last summer, and then their captain Lallana in the winter transfer.

It is precisely because Liverpool poachs Southampton every year that the Saints are nicknamed "fellows" by Reds fans.

Now, Jurgen Klopp needed a reliable right-back, and Liverpool's scouting staff immediately set their sights on the 'hometown' and found a good player.

……

They recommended young England fringe international Nathaniel to Jurgen Klopp. Klein.

Klein carefully studied the England homegrown defender, Klein is most satisfied with the defense, this player's defense is very good, more precisely, running and defensive grappling is his advantage, this type of player is Klopp's favorite, he likes to run not die, strong combat attributes, but, compared to the defensive point, Klein's shortcomings at the offensive end are more obvious, offense, strategy, crossing, and long-range shots are all hard injuries, all in all, this player belongs to the type of offense and defense.

This is not the kind of defender that Klopp is most satisfied with, his favorite is naturally the kind that can attack and defend.

However, such defenders are very scarce in today's football, and even if there are such players, they are now regarded as treasures in several big teams, and Liverpool does not want to poach them.

Bouis persuaded Jurgen Klopp to Liverpool on the left flank of Alberto. Moreno is strong in attack and weak in defense, often unable to return to defense after pressing up and is counterattacked by the opponent, in this case, the right side must not also be strong in attack and weak in defense, in this case, Klein's type of player is worth considering.

In the end, after all things considered, Klopp still agreed with Klein's choice at right-back.

……

Seeing that Liverpool had come to poach again, Southampton was furious.

It's too much, and you can't pick up wool and you can't do it for a sheep!

Southampton took a strong stance that Klein was not for sale.

After the tough rejection of Liverpool, Southampton FC is also doing the player's own work, trying to keep Klein: let's take a good drop in the Saints, so as not to go to Liverpool.

Southampton's retention made Klein not make up his mind to go to Liverpool for a while, after all, he has a familiar environment in Southampton, familiar teammates, to be honest, Southampton's strength is not bad, although not as good as Liverpool, but in the Premier League, it is also considered a team in the upper reaches of the standings, and last season once occupied the fourth place in the league for a long time.

Of course, it's impossible to say that Liverpool's invitation is not moved, and Klein is just hesitating.

After the match against Evian-les-Bains local regional league side FJK, Liverpool played against Lyon in Ligue 1 and Mainz in the Bundesliga.

In the match with Lyon, Liverpool and the opponent played 2-2, and Jiang Chenxi scored a goal.

In the match with Mainz, Liverpool won 3-1, and Jiang Chenxi contributed a pass and a shot.

The media and fans praised Jiang Chenxi's good competitive form in the warm-up game, and after a holiday, the fiery goal of Liverpool's number one star did not fade in the slightest due to time and rest, which made Liverpool fans very relieved.

However, these two games also exposed Liverpool's loopholes in the right-back position, Flanagan who served as the starting right-back in both games, the performance was very average, long-term injury, long-term absence of the team, the performance of the Liverpool academy talent who once made a very amazing debut and once occupied Liverpool's main right-back is really difficult to reassure and be satisfied.

……

Liverpool have stepped up their pursuit of Klein.

They used a trick.

Lovren and Lallana each called Klein.

Subsequently, Liverpool's number one star Jiang Chenxi was asked by reporters about Liverpool's pursuit of Klein in an interview with the media, and the Chinese star said, "Klein is a very good player. ”

Two days later, an announcement was made on the official website of Liverpool FC that Liverpool FC and Southampton had agreed on the dispute between England defender Nathaniel. Klein's transfer agreement was reached with Nathaniel. Klein officially moved to Liverpool, and the player signed a five-year contract with Liverpool.

Liverpool's official website did not announce the amount of the transfer fee, but the vast media quickly broke the data that the transfer fee was 12.5 million pounds.

In addition, some media broke the news that the Southampton club was very dissatisfied with Liverpool's wool-picking behavior, and Southampton fans even issued a letter of protest, saying that Southampton's players would not be sold to anyone in the future.

In this regard, Liverpool is not in a hurry, old relationships, old customers, it is nothing to sulk for a while, and when the time comes......

On this day, Klopp was chatting with his assistants.

'I think we can keep an eye on Southampton in the future, not just the players they have now, but also the transfer market, which players they have brought in, we will focus on it. Bwach joked that Southampton's production must be a high-quality product, and this sentence is true, at least from the perspective of Lovren and Lallana's two signings, it is true.

"I'll see what they're doing in the transfer market right now." First Team Development Coach Pete. Linders also said playfully, and he really took the trouble to look through the information, "Yes, the 'Saints' just signed a Dutch defender two days ago. ”

"Yes, Virgil. Virgil van Dijk, a Dutch defender, is 24 years old. "Physical Trainer Andreas. Kornmeier joked, "The data shows that the Dutch defender is solid defensively, physical, has amazing bounces and has a great header, so you say, should we buy it from Southampton now?" ”

The crowd laughed.

'Yes, it's a good idea, they brought in Van Dijk for £11 million. Peter. Linders said with a smile, "How about we get it now for £15 million?" “

"Alright, well, Southampton would be mad if we knew we were making fun of them." Kravitz laughed as he spoke.

That's when Jurgen Klopp came in and looked at his coaching team: What are you talking about? So happy?

Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: book guest residence
