The German has told them ‘stay and you won’t play’
According to the Daily Mirror, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has told SIX players they don’t have a future at the club.
The 49-year old wants to trim down his squad for the 2016/17 Premier League season, after the Anfield side used 39 players in all competitions last term.
The Reds do not have European commitments in this coming campaign, meaning Klopp can achieve his goals with a much leaner squad.
Klopp has allegedly told Christian Benteke, Lucas, Adam Bogdan, Tiago Ilori, Lazar Markovic and Mario Balotelli to all find new clubs.
‘we have to work a little bit’
“It makes no sense to stay in the squad and be in the squad when you don’t have a real opportunity to play. When there’s no chance to play, it makes absolutely no sense,” said Klopp.
“We have a few players, maybe, who want to leave us and I’m pretty sure that will happen. And one or two more players will join us from other clubs.”
“It’s a long time until the 31st of August and we have to work a little bit,” added the former Borussia Dortmund boss.
