INSANE: Liverpool sent nicolo barella message after jurgen klopp s midfield claim - The Real Truth

Steve McManaman doesn't think Liverpool will bring any new signings into the squad despite calls by some fans for a new midfielder to be signed this summer. Inter Milan's Nico Barella is one player who has been linked with a move to Anfield alongside long-term target Jude Bellingham.
