The Merseyside paper has analyzed all Jurgen Klopp’s signings since he joined the Reds in October 2015. Almost all of them have come in the same calendar month – July.
There have been just two in the January transfer window – Marko Grujic in 2016 (Klopp’s first signing) and Virgil van Dijk in 2018. All the rest have been signed in the summer and eleven of the twelve major summer signings have come in the month of July across the three previous windows.
Only Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain was signed after the season had started, deep into August. The manager loves to have players come in to learn all the systems of defense, attacking and pressing that have been so successful during his time in charge.
We are less than two weeks away from July and the Reds are expected to make some moves, even if they are smaller deals like a reserve goalkeeper and a backup left back.
After John Henry announced on the eve of the Champions League final that the club were going to back Klopp in this transfer window there has been speculation the Reds are planning one big move.
The wildest hopes are for Kylian Mbappe from PSG, but the more realistic prospects are Nicholas Pepe from Lille or Memphis Depay from Lyon. If history is anything to go by we won’t have to wait long to find out!
