Liverpool coach Jürgen Klopp has revealed that interest in central
defender Joel Matip of Schalke
since the time before taking the "red".
Yesterday the English club officially announced that it will attract the defender in the summer, but Schalke will not receive any money because of Matip contract expires and after a few months he will be a free agent.
"He is a central defender by top-class. Many young and experienced. Not often such a combination. To be honest, when I clean up after my stay at Borussia, I thought I should get him to the next club if I need defenders, "said Klopp.
"He never played for my team, on the contrary, quite the opposite - play for my biggest opponent. Maybe it says a lot about his class. Even when playing for a team that you can not like as coach of Dortmund, you can see his qualities, "said the German specialist.
