Jurgen Klopp looking to replace Simon Mignolet
That is according to former Reds stopper Bruce Grobbelaar, who claims Klopp is keen on a number of keepers in the Bundesliga.
The former Borussia Dortmund boss has been linked with a move for either Bernd Leno, 23, and Timo Horn, 22, of Bayer Leverkusen and Cologne, respectively.
And Grobbelaar, who spent 13 years at Anfield between 1981 and 1994, expects a new goalkeeper to be one of the first arrivals when the window reopens in January.
"I've had my criticism of Mignolet for two or three years, I even got pulled in and asked not to criticise him so openly," Grobbelaar told talkSPORT.

The 58-year-old added: "I think he [Klopp] is looking at it [buying a replacement for Mignolet].
"There are a couple of goalkeepers in the German league that he is looking at so I can see that might be one of his first signings."
