Jurgen Klopp has named Steven Gerrard as the retired Liverpool player he would most like to sign in their prime today, but joked he would have to work hard to get into the current team.
The former midfielder is an all-time Anfield great but left Liverpool at the end of the 2014-15 season, just months before the popular German manager took the hotseat.
Klopp has since overseen a remarkably successful time for Liverpool which saw them crowned Champions League winners last season before all-but securing the club's first Premier League title for 30 years this season.
