It is a line of conduct that does not change. Friday, at a press conference before the Premier League clash between his Liverpool and Manchester City (Sunday, 5.30 p.m.), Jürgen Klopp was asked about the financial power of the Citizens. According to him, Liverpool are clearly not boxing in the same category.
“You won’t like the answer but you all already have this answer. No one can compete with City in this areahe estimated. You have the best team in the world and you put the best striker on the market (Erling Haaland). No matter what it costs, you do it. What can Liverpool do? We cannot act like them. It is not possible“.

If he insisted on recalling that “three clubs can do whatever they want financially“(PSG, Newcastle and City, therefore), he did not try to complain about it: “It’s legal and all, okay, but they can do whatever they want. It’s not a problem for me at all, that’s how it is“.
The debate has already agitated England on several occasions, at the height of the rivalry between the two teams. Since joining in October 2015, Klopp and his management have spent more than €532m to strengthen the Reds, making Liverpool one of the ten biggest spending clubs in Europe over the period. A sum despite everything light years away from the City of Guardiola who, since the summer of 2016, has invested more than a billion euros in transfers.
