'If Liverpool fancied him they wouldn't let him go': Harry Redknapp slams Takumi Minamino after shock deadline day loan switch to Southampton and insists he 'hasn't looked good enough' since arriving at Anfield a year ago

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.
