Jamie Carragher has admitted he is ‘baffled’ after Liverpool signed Cody Gakpo in January rather than strengthen their midfield.
The Dutchman became the fourth forward to join the Reds over the past year, following on from Luis Diaz, Darwin Nunez, and Fabio Carvalho as Liverpool revamped their ageing attack. However, plans to overhaul their midfield remain on hold until the summer despite efforts to sign Aurelien Tchouameni last year.
With the Reds struggling in midfield this season, Klopp has been criticised for not already initiating that revamp with Liverpool instead seemingly deciding to wait in an effort to sign first-choice target Jude Bellingham from Borussia Dortmund.
