Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has taken a swipe at Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho ahead of Paul Pogba’s imminent £100 million transfer.

Klopp has issues with United splashing out such sums on players and insisted that he would do things very differently if he had a similar amount to spend.

In an interview with the Liverpool Echo, the German said: "If you bring one player in for £100m and he gets injured, then it all goes through the chimney.

“The day that this is football, I'm not in a job anymore, because the game is about playing together.

“That is how everybody in football understands it. You always want to have the best, but building the group is necessary to be successful.

“Other clubs can go out and spend more money and collect top players. I want to do it differently. I would even do it differently if I could spend that money.”
