Arsene Wenger sends transfer warning to Jurgen Klopp after Champions League win
The former Arsenal boss thinks Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp needs to be careful when bringing in new players
Arsene Wenger has sent a transfer warning to Jurgen Klopp after he won the Champions League with Liverpool.
The Reds' European success puts them in the perfect position to attract any player on the planet this summer, as they can offer them Champions League football and the chance to win serious medals next season.
But Former Arsenal manager Wenger has warned that new signings might have an adverse effect on team morale, as Klopp attempts to win his first Premier League title next season.
Speaking on beIN SPORTS, Wenger said: "They need to dominate European football to improve the technical level.
"But they might lose what is their strength at the moment - that solidarity, their fighting spirit. In our jobs, we know we need to improve a team but sometimes, by improving one aspect you destroy what makes you win."
Klopp spoke out about possible summer transfers after Liverpool's 2-0 win over Tottenham in the Champions League final in Madrid.
He didn't rule out signing new players, but said he had no intention of providing updates to the public at this early stage.
Klopp said: "It is always more difficult the better the team gets [to improve it], but that's a good sign. Transfers, we are not there to excite the people out there and think, 'Wow, a new player!' and stuff like that.
"Actually, the job is to improve the team and there are different ways [to do that], we've said that always. It's about training – actually, I think that's the best way to do [it] and if you have to sign somebody, you sign somebody.
"Then, if you have him then you don't think immediately about doing the same thing in the same position again. The team is pretty well balanced, so that's how it is. For sure, our plans are not for the public, that's how it is.
"But will it be the biggest transfer window of Liverpool football club? No, probably not, but I think it would have been a surprise if I said yes.
"Our eyes are always open, we always look, but what happens if and when, there is nothing to say about in the moment."
