Transfer News: Jurgen Klopp wants these three new signings
According to transfer news from Mirror, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has requested that three players be signed. Youri Tielemans, Renato Sanches and Kingsley Coman are the names Klopp has asked from transfer chief Michael Edwards.
Liverpool are hoping not to face an unprecedented crisis like last season. The squad was down to its bare bones after a plethora of injuries. To address the same, they have acted fast this time in signing Ibrahima Konate. However, it appears that they are not done as Klopp has asked for three more signings.
The Reds are actively looking to sign midfielders after the departure of Georginio Wijnaldum. Youri Tielemans of Leicester City is seen as the ideal choice but his price tag could be a huge hurdle. Another midfielder they are looking at is Renato Sanches, who impressed for Lille last season.
Lastly, Klopp wants to add another attacker to the side so as to not burden Salah with those duties. Kingsley Coman is a name they have been after but he could be an expensive outlay. Klopp feels that these three new signings could be required ahead of the new season.

It remains to be seen who Liverpool can realistically get now that they’ve signed Ibrahima Konate. The squad could really do with some fresh faces after what has been a gruelling season. It is possible that Liverpool could manage to get at least one or two of those three names but ideally, they would need to sign all of them.
