Jurgen Klopp Has Two Regrets From Liverpool’s Training Camp In Spain

Jurgen Klopp is enjoying life in Spain with his Liverpool squad – but for two players being absent.
With the Reds not in FA Cup action this weekend, Jurgen Klopp has taken his side to La Manga for a mini training camp.
Jordan Henderson has revealed how the Liverpool team are bonding well making the most of their time together as a squad.
But Klopp notes there have been two small downfalls during their trip with Daniel Sturridge being sent home through illness and Dejan Lovren not travelling due to picking up a knock against Tottenham in their last outing.
“When you work hard you need to have some time to enjoy other things,” Klopp told the Liverpool Echo.
“When we’re at home the players organise their own private life, but in a camp we have to do it. You have to use the time. We don’t have to drive anywhere. Here there is no private life, we are on duty all the time.
“It’s not the longest period in the world but it’s nice to have the time together and we really appreciate it.
“Not so nice is the fact that Dejan Lovren isn’t involved and we had to send Daniel Sturridge home due to illness – that’s not too cool.
“There are little knocks for one or two players but that’s not a problem. Being together is really important.
“Everything has been perfectly organised. We’ve had a few meetings and we’ll have a few more of them. I’m enjoying it and I think the players are too.”
Liverpool return to Premier League action with a trip to champions Leicester on February 27
