It's certainly a question worth asking Steveo. How many German players have we been linked with during his tenure? Havertz and Werner are the ones that stand out to me. If I remember correctly Wener wanted to come at one point??? They both ended up at Chelsea on massive contracts and we've seen examples recently of players choosing the money at Chelsea over playing for Klopp.
There was also Julian Brandt, would he have come to us at the time? I can't really remember but I think we ended up taking the decision that Salah would be a better option. Klopp went against his own opinion and took the advice of his staff on that call too.
It would seem there has been interest on both sides for this to happen, so maybe it is merely coincidental that it has never materialised.
