Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has revealed that he "doesn't see the need" to sign another defender before the transfer window shuts.

The Reds, who signed Virgil van Dijk from Southampton for a world-record fee in January, also have Dejan Lovren, Joe Gomez and Ragnar Klavan at centre-back.

Joel Matip is also an option, but the 26-year-old picked up an injury earlier in pre-season.

"Do you think we have to [sign a defender?] This summer? No, I am happy with our players, to be honest, so I don't see the need," the German manager told the Liverpool Echo following Liverpool's 4-1 win over Manchester United.

"When you see Joe Gomez playing in that role tonight as a central defender, he combines a lot of things you don't find in the transfer market, to be honest. I can't see in the moment the need, but there are 12 days to go and a lot of things can happen.

"You ask me now and I say no, but maybe if you ask me tomorrow I will say something different."

Liverpool face Napoli in their next pre-season game on Saturday.
