Klopp reacts to Chelsea’s heavy spending

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has reacted to Chelsea’s transfer spending as he said he doesn’t know how they are able to pull it off.

Klopp is confused about Chelsea’s free-spending recruitment strategy in the transfer market since Todd Boehly and Co took over the club from Roman Abramovich last May.

So far, the west London side have signed nine players to their squad last summer for a combined fee of £260 million.

Chelsea owners splashed over £310 million to sign eight players during the recently concluded winter transfer window.

They signed the likes of Enzo Fernandez, Benoit Badiashile, Mykhailo Mudryk, Noni Madueke, and Malo Gusto, while also snapping up Joao Felix on a loan switch.

Addressing his first press conference since the shutting of the January Transfer window, Klopp expressed his confusion at Chelsea’s way of doing business.

“I’ll say nothing without my lawyer. I don’t understand this part of the business but it’s obviously a big number. They are all really good players, so congratulations to them. I don’t understand how it’s possible though, but it’s really not for me to explain how it works.” he said.
