Liverpool's signing of Cody Gakpo is one of the biggest moves of the winter transfer window, given the Dutch striker's impressive performances and the investment made by the Reds. They are ahead of a number of European giants who have also shown an interest in acquiring his services.

Jürgen Klopp will have up to six top-class strikers for the remainder of the season, taking into account the injuries to the likes of Luis Díaz and Diogo Jota. They will have a top-level rotation to face the remainder of the Premier League and the decisive phase of the UEFA Champions League, where they will face Real Madrid in the last 16.

The German's intention is to make an important tactical change to take advantage of most of his attacking pieces and to accommodate the team, taking into account the problems he has had in midfield due to underperformance and injuries. Here we tell you about the tactical change:

Jürgen Klopp's intention is to change the system again: moving from 4-3-3 to 4-4-2 by removing a midfielder to add an extra attacker, which will offer him much more quality in the final stretch of the pitch and better occupy the whole width of the pitch in phases without the ball.

Klopp to shake up Reds line-up

The aim would be for Cody Gakpo to play up front alongside Darwin Nunez plus Mohamed Salah and Luis Diaz open on the flanks. Klopp will use a double pivot with Thiago Alcantara and Fabinho to support the team. He will also have a wider rotation on the flanks with the likes of Harvey Elliott and Fabio Carvalho, who can also occupy those areas of the pitch.
