Liverpool are yet to make a decision over whether Ozan Kabak will be at the club next season, the Daily Mirror report.
Kabak has joined Liverpool on loan from Schalke, with the Reds having an option to buy him for £18 million.
However, Klopp is seemingly waiting until the last minute before deciding whether to activate the clause or not.
Kabak has performed well for Liverpool of late, and his partnership alongside Nat Phillips has generally been solid.
But with Klopp’s side potentially having their eyes on other targets at the back, Kabak’s future is apparently uncertain.
It may now be up to the 21-year-old to prove his value over the rest of the season if he is to stay at Anfield.
Liverpool’s exit from the Champions League means that they now have to focus entirely on domestic matters.
If Kabak can help Liverpool claim a top four spot then Klopp’s temptation will surely be to sign him.
At his age he still has years to improve, and for the agreed fee he could turn out to be a valuable purchase.
But if Liverpool are looking for a starting centre-back next season, they may wish to land a slightly more proven option in the summer.
