Jürgen Klopp: Evian training camp is 'massively important'

The Reds will travel to the south of France on Monday, with a quintet of first-teamers set to join up with the group ahead of Wednesday’s friendly against Lyon in Geneva and Sunday’s FA Community Shield clash with Manchester City at Wembley.

Speaking at his press conference to preview the Community Shield on Monday, Klopp confirmed that Alisson Becker, Roberto Firmino, Naby Keita, Mohamed Salah and Xherdan Shaqiri will report for pre-season training on Monday.

And the boss is looking forward to stepping up preparations for 2019-20 over the coming days.

“[It’s] Massively important. We’re looking forward to it, absolutely,” Klopp said of the Evian camp.
