Wataru Endo and the relationship between Klopp and Japanese players that has Anfield excited

After Jurgen Klopp and his people had failed attempts to bring in players from the Premier League, the expansion of their horizons has taken them to Germany, where the Stuttgart midfielder has a possible new signing this summer, with talk of Japan's Wataru Endo arriving for a reported £18million.

For many Liverpool fans, bringing back a Japanese player brings back fond memories of previous years where Takumi Minamino served as their striker for three seasons, expecting the same charisma from Endo that always characterises players from the Land of the Rising Sun.

It is not only the fans of the team who are analysing the possible new signing in midfield, and is that the coach Jurgen Klopp in addition to anticipate that Wataru could have utilities in the group, the German knows that during his career the fact of having a Japanese has been like a charm that usually attract luck regarding the title, happening twice in his time with Borussia Dortmund where Shinji Kagawa was part of the group, being the last and most recent with Minamino who lifted the title of the 2019-2020 Premier League campaign.

<strong>Reds will go for the league title</strong>

While Klopp's involvement with Japanese players is curious, the reality is that the Reds, with or without Wataru Endo, will be looking to take the league title from a Manchester City side who have no hesitation in proving they are still the best in Europe by beating Sevilla on penalties for the European Super Cup title, with Klopp hoping to snatch that status from Pep Guardiola's side and win their 20th Premier League title.
