Liverpool boss Klopp: If we have to buy somebody we will

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp says plans are in place to "improve" the new European champions.

Klopp spoke out about possible summer transfers after Liverpool's 2-0 win over Tottenham in the Champions League final in Madrid.

He didn't rule out signing new players, but said he had no intention of providing updates to the public at this early stage.

Klopp said: "It is always more difficult the better the team gets [to improve it], but that's a good sign. Transfers, we are not there to excite the people out there and think, 'Wow, a new player!' and stuff like that.

"Actually, the job is to improve the team and there are different ways [to do that], we've said that always. It's about training – actually, I think that's the best way to do [it] and if you have to sign somebody, you sign somebody.

"Then, if you have him then you don't think immediately about doing the same thing in the same position again. The team is pretty well balanced, so that's how it is. For sure, our plans are not for the public, that's how it is.

"But will it be the biggest transfer window of Liverpool football club? No, probably not, but I think it would have been a surprise if I said yes.

"Our eyes are always open, we always look, but what happens if and when, there is nothing to say about in the moment."
