Klopp can play a big role in denying Liverpool the transfer of the top star

Jurgen Klopp could make a big impact if Liverpool sign a Bundesliga player that Arne Slott is said to be very fond of. 

The 57-year-old left Liverpool at the end of the 2023/2024 season after nine seasons at Anfield. 

Since then, Slott has taken charge of the club as Liverpool lead the Premier League, four points clear of second place, while they also hold top position in the Champions League. 

Liverpool have reportedly expressed interest in PSG (on loan at Leipzig) striker Xavi Simons. 

Simons is activated on the left side of the attack so he would not be a replacement for Salah, but could act as competition for Cody Gakpo and Luis Diaz. 

According to a recent report from The Athletic, Liverpool could compete with Barcelona, ​​Bayern Munich and Real Madrid to secure the Dutchman's services.

Now BILD boss Christian Falk has revealed that Leipzig are planning to use Klopp as their 'secret weapon' to ensure they eventually sign the player. 

This is due to the fact that from January 1, Klopp will start his new job at Red Bull as their boss, while it is already known that they also have Leipzig under their management./Telegraph/
