Manchester United told they should learn from Liverpool with Jurgen Klopp transfer point

Manchester United have been told to follow the example of Liverpool in the transfer window, with former midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger saying they have got it ‘completely wrong’ in previous years.

While Liverpool have had success with the majority of transfers under Jurgen Klopp, rivals United have had less success in recent seasons, despite spending large amounts of money on players.

But throwing money at players is not the way to go, according to Schweinsteiger, who used Liverpool’s transfer dealings as an example.

He did the same at Borussia Dortmund where we found [Robert] Lewandowski, [Mario] Götze, [Mats] Hummels, [Łukasz] Piszczek, [Jakub] Błaszczykowski, [İlkay] Gündoğan, [Marco] Reus – all those players.

“All you need to do is look 45 miles over and see how Liverpool do it and how long they’ve been dominating for. They are stable, it doesn’t have the wave like United does.”
