Liverpool Transfer News: Jurgen Klopp Drops Mamadou Sakho Hint, Latest Rumours
- Updated: December 4, 2016
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has dropped yet another hint out-of-favour defender Mamadou Sakho will be sold during the January transfer window, while Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly planning a bid of their own for Borussia Dortmund starlet Christian Pulisic.
In a recent interview, Klopp ruled out the possibility of selling any first-team players, amid rumours Daniel Sturridge could be on his way out of the club. Some took that as a sign Sakho would also stick around, but the caretaker made it very clear he is not a part of his first-team squad, per TalkSport:
Now you know, I said it: he is not in these plans for the first team. The first-team squad is here [at the training ground].
Do you really think I would have said Sakho will not be sold in winter? Nothing changed. Once again this actual first-team squad is in this dressing room, from this point of view nobody will be sold.
Per the report, Sakho has been training with the reserve team and playing in the Premier League 2 since September. The former PSG star was sent home from the pre-season tour and spoke out about his treatment on social media, and he hasn’t featured for Klopp since.
James Pearce of the Liverpool Echo believes the blame rests entirely with Sakho:
