Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has joked about reviving their bid for Southampton defender Virgil van Dijk.

Klopp was asked about the Dutchman after their friendly win at Tranmere Rovers last night.

He is quoted by the Liverpool Echo: "Am I allowed to talk about this? I am not! Pretty much everything I could say would be a mistake.

"You or your colleagues wrote everything about this a few weeks ago. I was in Iceland by the way when somebody told me this was in the newspaper.

"Nothing happened since then, all good so far, so I can't say anything about this."
