Former Liverpool star Stan Collymore reckons there’s one very good reason Raphinha should snub interest from Chelsea, Barcelona and Co in favour of joining his old club — Jurgen Klopp.

The Blues are one of three Premier League clubs trying to sign the Leeds star, with Arsenal having already made an opening offer for the Brazilian and Tottenham also keen.

Spanish giants Barca are also desperate to land the £60million-rated wideman if they can generate the funds. But Collymore reckons he’d complete an excellent summer of business for Liverpool by becoming the perfect complement to or replacement for Mohamed Salah.

The Egyptian has just a year left on his contract and the fear amongst the Anfield faithful is that he will run it down and walk away for nothing next summer. Collymore, who became a British record signing when he moved from Nottingham Forest to Liverpool for £8.5m in 1995, said: “My message to Liverpool is, ‘Go on, get in there and get him, and future proof for the prospect of Salah leaving in a year.

"If Jurgen Klopp can show the boy how to play with more tactical discipline, the Reds will have one hell of a potential threat down the left or right with a promise of goals if he stays high up the pitch
