Liverpool missed out on both Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia in the summer, with the pair joining Chelsea instead. Carragher says that interest shows Klopp still wants to improve in midfield.
He told Sky Sports: “I still do think Liverpool are still looking for a holding midfield player. They put a bid in for Caicedo when [Mac Allister had already been signed] so that tells you, I think, that they’re still looking for somebody in that role.
“But whether that happens in January or next summer because on the back of pulling out of that transfer, he went and brought [Ryan] Gravenberch, who’s a number eight. So maybe they then thought, ‘Well, okay, we’ll play Mac Allister as the lone six for the rest of the season’, and Liverpool have done really well, but at times you will get caught out defensively.”
