Cody Gakpo will have to wait for his Liverpool debut as Jurgen Klopp explained why he knew instantly the player wanted a move to Anfield.
Gakpo will officially become a Reds player when the transfer window opens at the start of next month after moving from PSV Eindhoven for an initial £37million fee.
Injuries to attacking duo Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota helped persuade Liverpool to move mid-way through the season for the player, with Fabio Carvalho and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain having both started on the left wing since the season restarted last week and in contention to feature against Leicester City on Friday evening.
