Liverpool boss Klopp: We cannot spend every year like last summer

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp insists they can handle going into the new season without any big name additions.

The only newcomer in the Reds' squad during the transfer window has been 17-year-old Dutch defender Sepp van den Berg, and Klopp does not expect that situation to change significantly.

"We are pretty relaxed in that, we will see what's coming up," he told Liverpool's website. "How I said, it will not be the biggest transfer window of LFC; we invested a lot in the team in the last two years, I would say. We cannot spend every year in the same manner.

"People talk about it like, 'now another £300million or £200million'. There are maybe only two clubs in the world - it looks in the moment like Barcelona and (Real) Madrid can do the same - (Manchester) City and PSG that can do it every year.

"But we are fine. I'm happy with the team, we are really happy. We have to see if we find maybe one position, if we find something for it, but there's no real pressure because it's not about signing a player. We have solutions for all the situations.

"I'm really looking forward to the season, it will be really exciting again."
