Harry Redknapp questions why Liverpool let Takumi Minamino join Southampton on loan in last-minute deadline day as former Saints boss believes Jurgen Klopp doesn't have 'any use' for the Japanese playmaker

Harry Redknapp believes Jurgen Klopp has 'no use' for Takumi Minamino after the Liverpool boss sanctioned his late loan move to Southampton on deadline day.

In what was one of the most surprising moves of the day, the Saints managed to secure the shock signing of Minamino until the end of the season – just a year after the Japan international joined in a £7million move from RB Salzburg.

However, it hasn't quite worked out for the 26-year-old who has failed to break into the Reds' starting XI in the 12 months he's been at the club.
