Jurgen Klopp has discussed Liverpool's reaction to the recent coronavirus outbreaks in parts of Europe.

Serie A authorities announced that five of this weekend's Italian top-flight games will be played behind closed doors, while rugby union's Six Nations has also seen Italy's game against Ireland in Dublin postponed.

Klopp said at a pre-match press conference ahead of his team's game against Watford on Saturday that his side "take it seriously" but haven't looked to change much regarding their preparations, per the Liverpool Echo's Paul Gorst:
