Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp admits he may not get the transfer business he wants done before pre-season starts.
A year ago the German had concluded all of his signings by July 20, bringing in Sadio Mane, Joel Matip, Georginio Wijnaldum, Ragnar Klavan, Loris Karius and Alex Manninger in a summer which also had Euro 2016 taking place.
This time around, however, he is not so confident he will get what he wants in sufficient time despite previously admitting most of the work on recruitment had already been done.
"I wish tomorrow (to have signings completed) but unfortunately that's not really likely," he told his post-match press conference after the 3-0 friendly win over Sydney FC in Australia.
