Jurgen Klopp has finally revealed his involvement in Philippe Coutinho’s summer move to Bayern Munich, saying he told the Brazilain that the German club would be a good fit for him.

The former Liverpool forward joined the Bundesliga champions on a season-long loan from Barcelona, and Klopp has revealed he spoke to Coutinho before the move.

“[He’s a] world-class player, really good transfer for Bayern and the Bundesliga,” Klopp told Bild as cited by Sky Sports.

“I thought it’s a good fit for both when I first heard about it. It may sound strange, but we didn’t have enough money to get him.

“We’d already spent all the money we got for him. I have already told him in person that he and Bayern will be a good fit.”
