Liverpool FC news: Jurgen Klopp reacts to Chelsea midfielder Oscar completing £52 million move to Shanghai SIPG

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp believes players can make enough money in European football to not have to consider the mega-millions on offer in the Chinese Super League.

Chelsea forward Oscar has just completed a £52million move to Shanghai SIPG for a reported salary of £400,000 a week.

Klopp joked the Brazil international's family would not have any money worries now, but also admitted clubs had very little power to prevent players being tempted by lucrative offers in the Far East.

"I know of a few clubs in the rest of Europe think similar things about England," said the German, when asked about the spending power of China.
