Liverpool sporting director Michael Edwards is set to put as many as eight players up for sale as the Reds plan a major squad overhaul this summer.
The lack of quality in Klopp’s squad lad to Injuries ravaged Jurgen Klopp’s squad implosionPremier League title defense.
They finished a further third to champions Manchester City, with a run of six consecutive home defeats putting paid to their dreams of winning a second successive league title.
Last season’s setback exposed the poor options that Klopp has to call on beyond his main starters.
That means that a major squad overhaul is on the way at Anfield this summer, with a notable number of outgoings and incomings.
Georginio Wijnaldum has already left on a free transfer, but that is something Liverpool would ideally have wished to have avoided.
Joining Wijnaldum through the departure door could be several others, with Goal stating that as many as eight stars could be heading for departures after Edwards put them up for sale.

Origi’s fellow back-ups in the attacking areas are also at grave risk of bequeathing Merseyside having also failed to print Klopp last term.
Xherdan Shaqiri and Takumi Minamino look set to be on their way, with Goal asserting that “good offers” for the pair will be weighed.
Two more members of the first-team squad last season will also be permitted to depart, despite both making fundamental contributions.
The first is Nat Phillips, who will be let go if suitors Burnley, Southampton, Brighton, or Newcastle match his valuation
Liverpool will also listen to offers for Phillips’ fellow defender Neco Williams, who made a few of appearances last term.
The final members of the squad of eight being put up for sale are Harry Wilson, Marko Grujic, and Loris Karius.

Wilson is drawing interest from Benfica, with a move to the Championship also a possibility, while Grujic looks set for a move to Germany or Italy.
