Liverpool 's head of fitness and conditioning Andreas Kornmayer, who is one of Jurgen Klopp's most trusted allies, is reportedly believed by some to have too much influence at the club and is 'hard to work with'.
Kornmayer has been at the club since 2016, when he joined from Bayern Munich, but claims that he wields too much power represents a fresh issue for Klopp in a campaign that has been littered with setbacks.
Liverpool have struggled significantly in the Premier League, where they sit 21 points behind leaders Arsenal, and have also been knocked out of both domestic cup competitions already this term.
