Jurgen Klopp Praises Werner and Havertz

By db-admin

DBasia.news – Two Bundesliga stars, Kai Havertz and Timo Werner, are currently a hot commodity for the upcoming summer exchange. These two players have often been linked to the top of the current English Premier League, Liverpool.

Werner even reportedly agreed to join Chelsea who agreed to pay 55 million euros to Leipzig – according to the clause of his purchase. Werner (24 years old) is reported to have been willing to play in the direction of Frank Lampard.

Meanwhile, Havertz moved to Bayern Munich from Leverkusen. In addition, Bayern clubs like Real Madrid and Manchester United have dared to pay a substantial amount for the 20-year-old attacking midfielder.

Klopp called the two talents from his native country (Germany) to be great players, but he also mentioned how the corona virus pandemic affected the purchasing power of Liverpool and most European clubs.

“There are many good players on this planet. Timo Werner is a great player, Kai Havertz is a great player,” Jurgen Klopp told Sky Sports.

“The right time, opportunity – everything must be put together. Six, seven weeks ago, we didn’t know if we could play again this year (because of the corona virus).”

“If we don’t play the second half of the season, we will think, ‘OK, when will you really be able to play football again?’ And now it starts immediately. There are many rumors in England about who Manchester United will choose, Chelsea will vote. “

The corona virus pandemic had a major impact on the financial condition of European clubs without income from television broadcasting rights, audience ticket sales, and merchandise. Therefore this affects the purchasing power of the club.

“It’s rather quiet here (at Liverpool) right now, I think it’s safe to say. If you want to take it seriously and run a normal business and depend on income and don’t know how much you will get. Especially because we don’t know when we can start playing with the spectators again, “Klopp added.

“Right now, all clubs are losing money. Without spectators, we have to pay back season tickets and maybe not sell them next year. At least maybe without the first 10 or 15 matches. The VIP area won’t be packed and tickets won’t be sold. This will have an impact on partners and things will look a little different, “he explained.
