Jurgen Klopp is about to be handed a £200million windfall to invest in the team after Champions League disappointment

JURGEN KLOPP will get the green light to invest Liverpool's Champions League bonanza.

The American has sanctioned £52.75million for RB Leipzig's Naby Keita, 25, to bolster Klopp's midfield. Lyon midfielder Nabil Fekir, 24, is seen as direct replacement for Philippe Coutinho and will cost another £60m.

Crystal Palace's Wilfreid Zaha, Monaco's Thomas Lemar and Christian Pulisic, of Borussia Dortmund, are others being looked at to form a new Fab Four with Mo Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino.

Pep Guardiola expects a title challenge from the Reds as they will have £70m of Euro dosh to add to their £150m of Premier League cash.

Of course, whether calamity keeper Loris Karius is now replaced could be a new item on the agenda.

TARGETS

NABIL FEKIR (rated £60m)

THOMAS LEMAR (rated £90m)

22 — Monaco winger

JUST two goals but eight assists in 30 league outings in the last ten months.

Liverpool remain keen on the French youngster with his blistering pace and eye for goal linking him with Europe’s elite. Will be costly.

WILFRIED ZAHA (rated £60m)

25 — Crystal Palace forward

NINE league goals saved Palace from the drop — but Champions League football could lure him away.

His pace and work ethic fits with Klopp’s style. But he is also on the radar of Spurs, Manchester City and Chelsea.
