Jurgen Klopp brought new assistant coach

According to a report, Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has hired in a dedicated ‘throw-in coach’ to work with his players on the training ground.

The Telegraph is reporting that Thomas Gronnemark was appointed during the summer to help reduce the number of errors from the set-piece play.

Thomas Gronnemark will reportedly work individually with full-backs Trent Alexander-Arnold, Andrew Robertson, Joe Gomez, Alberto Moreno and Nathaniel Clyne, while Georginio Wijnaldum, James Milner and Sadio Mane have also taken part in various training sessions.

The world record holder for the longest throw-in has previously spent time with Midtjylland and Bundesliga clubs Hertha Berlin and Schalke 04.

The Reds take or defend an estimated 50 throw-ins per match in the Premier League.

Liverpool meanwhile have the perfect start of the season as the Merseyside giants have won all of the three matches and share the top spot with nine points with Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur.

Despite English transfer window already being closed, the Reds are allowed to loan out or sell the players abroad and one on the radar to leave Anfield this summer is Sheyi Ojo, who is closing in on a deal to join Ligue 1 new boys.
