Jurgen Klopp admits he does not feel Cody Gakpo will be available for Liverpool’s trip to Brentford.

The forward has completed a £37 million switch from PSV Eindhoven to Anfield. It will go through when the January transfer window opens so Gakpo cannot play against Leicester tomorrow.

The Reds travel to Brentford on 2 January but because that is a Bank Holiday, Klopp is noot optimistic paperwork to be ratified in time.

Klopp said: “We are very early, which is good. There might be a chance for Brentford but I think not really because of the Bank Joliday which some people have to sign on. We have until 1pm on 2 January. I’m not too positive it will happen. Probably Wolves.”
