'It will not be a busy summer' - Liverpool boss Klopp on transfers, coronavirus and FSG relationship

The Reds manager admits the impact of Covid-19 will make it hard for the newly-crowned Premier League champions to spend big on new signings

Jurgen Klopp admits Liverpool’s summer transfer plans have been scuppered by the coronavirus crisis – but insists the Reds already have a squad capable of building on their remarkable recent success.

No sooner had Liverpool’s first league title for 30 years been confirmed last week, than thoughts began to turn towards the future, and whether they will be able to defend their crown.

Klopp has already suggested there is more to come from his side – a scary thought given they have lost just two of their last 70 league games, sit 23 points clear of their nearest challengers and are on course to set a new record points total for an English top-flight season.
