Bayern Munich star Leon Goretzka has lifted the lid on the reasons why he snubbed Liverpool in 2018, despite Jurgen Klopp being desperate to sign him.
Goretzka was at Schalke from 2013 to 2018, before running down his contract and deciding to move on to pastures new. Plenty of top clubs were in for him, but in the end he decided to stay in the Bundesliga with giants Bayern Munich.
Klopp, having previously managed Borussia Dortmund while Goretzka was at Schalke, was well aware of his talent, but didn't manage to bring his man to Anfield.
