'Only nuances decide' - RB Leipzig defender makes Liverpool admission before friendly

RB Leipzig defender Lukas Klostermann has given his praise to Liverpool and believes they are 'one of the best teams in Europe' as the two sides prepare to do battle in a pre-season friendly on Thursday.

Both Liverpool and Leipzig will continue to ramp up their preparations for the new season in Germany this evening. It will be a special match for Reds pair Naby Keita and Ibrahima Konate, who will be reunited with their former club at the Red Bull Arena.

Klostermann was a team-mate of both Keita and Konate and the German international has admitted he is relishing the chance to play against them. The centre-half has also hailed Liverpool for the way they have established themselves on the European stage in recent years.
