'It will be a problem for Southgate' - Klopp feels England will suffer if Premier League doesn't change sub rule

The Liverpool boss believes that Three Lions players could be exhausted when they report for Euro 2020 duty next summer

Jurgen Klopp says England boss Gareth Southgate will suffer if the Premier League doesn't change its rules to allow five substitutes per game.

The Liverpool head coach has been vocal in his belief that the league must change from three to five allowed subs per game, citing the fixture congestion in the coronavirus-shortened 2020-21 season.

Liverpool have already suffered a number of key injuries this season, which has infuriated the German head coach as he believes they have been caused in part by fixture congestion and the lack of extra subs available.
