Jurgen Klopp has stated that Liverpool will not dwell on missed chances in the transfer market and instead will proceed with other plans this summer.

According to reports from 90min earlier this week, the Reds backed out of signing Borussia Dortmund's Jude Bellingham due to a high fee and the need to strengthen several positions.

Other targets for Liverpool include Chelsea’s Mason Mount, Bayern Munich's Ryan Gravenberch, and Brighton's Alexis Mac Allister, whose father said it is likely he will move on after this season.

During a press conference ahead of Liverpool's match against Leeds, Klopp spoke about the club's transfer plans mentioning their interest in "12 midfielders".

"We must make decisions for the team, for the club," said Klopp. "We can't dream, we can't be angry if we don't get this or that. We cannot discuss things in public all the time. I react like a supporter or like you [a journalist], thinking we should have this or that. Who cares? We have to sort it. That’s it. Make the best of it.

"We are looking into good players, and some of them will end up here. That's all."

Klopp also explained that if they can't sign a player, they won't just throw out other possibilities, saying, "We are interested in all good players, and some of them will end up here. That's all."

On the latest episode of Talking Transfers, 90min's podcast network, Scott Saunders, Graeme Bailey & Toby Cudworth discuss Liverpool missing out on Bellingham and other transfer rumors.

In other news, sources confirm to 90min that Liverpool will not pursue a deal for Bellingham this summer. Additionally, there have been multiple rumors regarding the future of Kylian Mbappe and Lionel Messi in Paris Saint-Germain.
