Klopp: Liverpool can survive losing stars. Look at Dortmund

Published on: 04 August 2017

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is confident keeping hold of his best players.

Both Philippe Coutinho and Sadio Mane have been linked with Barcelona and Inter Milan respectively this week.

At Borussia Dortmund, Klopp had to endure top talent like Nuri Sahin, Mario Gotze and Robert Lewandowski being cherry-picked by rival clubs, but Liverpool are in a stronger position to resist the advances of potential suitors.

“When we became (Bundesliga) champions, we lost Nuri Sahin. It's not that the world ends afterwards," Klopp said.

“Everyone thought 'oh my god'. We got (Ilkay) Gundogan. Did we know he was as good as Nuri? No. We hoped it and it worked out.

“That's how things happen. I can understand your interest in writing about this but I really don't want to talk about things like this. That's no message, that's how it is."
