Liverpool line up THREE goalkeepers to spend Philippe Coutinho cash on reinforcements
LIVERPOOL have already put plans in place to spend the money from Philippe Coutinho’s transfer to Barcelona on a new goalkeeper, according to reports.
Barcelona have agreed a deal worth £142million to sign Coutinho from Liverpool with £102m being paid upfront.
That leaves Jurgen Klopp under pressure to reinvest well in the squad while also finding an adequate replacement.
Virgil van Dijk has already arrived at Anfield to help shore up the defence and he made an instant impact on his debut with the winning goal against Everton on Friday.
But Coutinho’s departure leaves a gaping hole in Liverpool’s squad further up the field.
