This Friday morning, Jürgen Klopp presented himself at a press conference. The German technician was questioned about the absence of Wataru Endo, who will play in the Asian Cup with Japan, as well as that of Mohamed Salah, who will join Egypt to participate in the African Cup of Nations. Frank, the former Borussia Dortmund coach said he hoped to see his players return as quickly as possible.

“I said if I wished them luck it would be a lie. I hope they get eliminated in the group stage, but that’s probably not possible. Good luck and I hope they can come back healthy. I’m pretty sure we’ll find a way to replace them (…) Do we want to play without Mo? No. But we will find a way but of course we are playing Arsenal and we can lose with Mo Salah but at the moment we have a chance to win the game so we are thinking about it.
