Jose Enrique has admitted on Instagram that he would love Tottenham Hotspur forward Son Heung-min and Manchester City’s Kevin de Bruyne at Liverpool.
The former left-back thinks that Liverpool ‘would have been champions more often’ if they were on Merseyside, as well as another Champions League trophy to their name.
Jurgen Klopp recently shared that one of his biggest regrets was not signing Spurs flyer Son (Mirror) – he won the Premier League’s Golden Boot last season alongside Mo Salah.
Kevin de Bruyne needs no introduction because he is probably the best footballer on the planet today, and if it’s not him, then the other guy must be picking up the Ballon d’Or.
Either way, following Klopp’s admission about his regrets at not signing Son, this is what Enrique made of it all.
“More or less I agree with Klopp, and I agree once more,” said Enrique.
“I believe with Son, it would have been a different story because we still would have had him in the team,” said Enrique. “Another player I would have loved in our team is Kevin de Bruyne, with them two, then we would have been champions more often.
“Even in the champions league final, we probably would have had one more and one more Premier League too. But it’s the situation that it is. What a player this guy is.
“I like players like Kevin de Bruyne, they look very humble and very relaxed. I love players like this that just focus on football. It’s good from Klopp to recognise this.”
LIVERPOOL’S NEXT SUPERSTAR
Mo Salah is still cooking for Liverpool, even if his season has been indifferent, but it seems as though they need another superstar to light up Anfield.
Sadio Mane left in the summer, with Luis Diaz and Darwin Nunez looking to make a name for themselves at the club.
But, come next summer, that next superstar, perhaps Jude Bellingham, is needed for the Reds to push at the top again.
