Jurgen Klopp confirms he was advised to take Diogo Jota out of Liverpool starting line-up against Rangers

Jurgen Klopp has explained that it was not the original plan to have Diogo Jota named on Liverpool’s bench for the clash against Rangers.

The Reds are taking on the Scottish Premiership outfit in their fourth Champions League Group A fixture of the competition. Klopp’s side claimed a 2-0 victory in the reverse fixture at Anfield last week.

Klopp made six changes from the team that lost 3-2 at Arsenal in the Premier League at the weekend. Ibrahima Konate, Joe Gomez, Fabinho, Harvey Elliott, Fabio Carvalho and Roberto Firmino were all brought into the starting line-up.
