(Baonghean.vn) - Finally, the Anfield team had to accept the Brazilian star's transfer to Barcelona after unsuccessful efforts to keep him. In return, Liverpool got 142 million pounds from this deal. The question now is how will they use it in the future?

One thing is for sure, coach Klopp and the Liverpool board will not let £142 million sit idle in the account. In any case, in this winter transfer window, Anfield will welcome a few new faces, after the record £75 million contract of Van Dijk. The first position that the Reds of Merseyside want to quickly fill is the gap left by Coutinho. This is completely normal.

According to information from the British media, recently, facing the prospect of losing Coutinho to Barcelona, ​​Liverpool has listed a series of names to replace the Brazilian player. Expensive is Lemar (AS Monaco), affordable is Lanzini (West Ham), Draxler (PSG), Mahrez (Leicester City)... Of course, to bring one of the above stars to Anfield, Liverpool will inevitably be forced to pay a higher price by the clubs that own those targets.

In the current situation, although there are not many opportunities to win the Premier League, coach Klopp and his team still have 3 goals to conquer this season. The most important task is to win the Champions League, followed by winning a position in the TOP 4 Premier League and winning the FA Cup. All 3 goals are extremely difficult for the Port City team, especially when they have just lost an important star - Coutinho.

It is true that Salah, Firmino... are playing very well, but the absence of Coutinho has left a big gap in Liverpool's attack. If the team wants to conquer the set goals, coach Klopp must quickly bring in at least one star approaching Coutinho's level. The only way is to immediately use the 142 million pounds that Barcelona just transferred. At that time, Lemar or Lanzini or Draxler... will be at Anfield.

In addition to finding a replacement for Coutinho, Liverpool should also recruit a top-class goalkeeper. Both Mignolet and Karius have made terrible mistakes in the past two years. An ambitious team like The Kop cannot entrust the goal to goalkeepers with inconsistent form and average skills. It is time for coach Klopp to create a revolution in Liverpool's goal.

Just look at the goals of the big teams in the Premier League and Europe. Man City has Ederson, Man Utd has De Gea, Chelsea has Courtois, Tottenham has Hugo Lloris, Arsenal has Petr Cech, Barcelona has Stegen, Juventus has Buffon... Only Liverpool does not have a 'goalkeeper' worthy of the team's reputation and ambition. Now with 142 million pounds in hand, there is no reason why coach Klopp would not bring a world-class goalkeeper to Anfield.

Having money is one thing, spending it is another. Using it for the wrong purpose and not effectively is like "losing money and getting sick". Experts and Liverpool fans are waiting to see how the coach and the board will use the "mountain of money" just earned from the Coutinho deal?
