Jurgen Klopp insists that Liverpool will be prepared to pounce in the January transfer window if the right opportunity presents itself - conceding that he would like to see further investment in his squad.
On Thursday evening, as the Reds made their return to competitive action with a 3-2 defeat to Manchester City in the Carabao Cup, the Liverpool boss revealed that Roberto Firmino had become the latest member of his squad to be struck down by injury, with the Brazilian joining long-term forward absentees Diogo Jota and Luis Diaz.
It means that in attack the Reds have been left with just Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah as recognised senior forwards, with Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Fabio Carvalho now expected to be deputies in the absence of Jota and Diaz.
