Klopp: No need to sell Coutinho to balance Liverpool books

Jurgen Klopp insists Liverpool do not need to sell Philippe Coutinho to recoup the cash spent on their £75million swoop for Southampton centre-back Virgil van Dijk.

The Reds move to make Netherlands international Van Dijk the most expensive defender of all time was confirmed on Wednesday, drawing a line under one of the transfer sagas that dominated the close season at Anfield.

Gerrard: Liverpool will miss wonderful footballer Coutinho

Steven Gerrard accepts Liverpool will miss wonderful footballer Philippe Coutinho after the Brazilian formally completed his dream move to Barcelona on Monday.

Liverpool were able to repel a series of offers for Coutinho in August, but the Premier League side allowed the playmaker to make the move to Camp Nou and become Barca s most expensive signing after the January transfer window opened.

Coutinho reportedly paid around £10million of his own money to help push through a deal reported to be worth up to £142million, setting a new record for a transfer involving a British club.

And Gerrard, who played with Coutinho towards the end of his own Anfield playing career, believes it will be difficult to replace the 25-year-old, who scored 41 Premier League goals for…
