Jurgen Klopp on Harry Wilson's Liverpool future after his stunning goal against Lyon

Jurgen Klopp admits no decision has been made on Harry Wilson's future at Liverpool after the winger produced a trademark moment of magic.

Wilson curled in a brilliant 25-yard left-footed strike to help the in their final pre-season friendly on Wednesday evening.

It was the 22-year-old's second goal of the summer having netted in the 3-2 defeat to Borussia Dortmund in Notre Dame on the opening game of the US tour.

Wilson, who spent last season on loan at Championship side Derby County, has become the subject of increased speculation with Bournemouth and Newcastle United known admirers.

Liverpool are no longer keen on another loan move for the winger, who they value at around £25million.

And Klopp has indicated the Reds will ultimately do what is best for themselves and the player ahead of the transfer window closing on Thursday week.

“We are in constant conversation, that's clear,” said the Reds boss. “We have to do the right thing for us and for the boy. That's how it is.

“It's nothing to talk in public about it, so we will see what happens in the next eight or nine days until the window closes.

“He is obviously a really good player. I've been really happy with him all pre-season, he came back from Derby completely different.

“That's a good example of how a loan can really work out. For Derby it was really good, for Harry it was, and for us as well.”

Klopp added: “I'm happy that he could show that again today. He didn't play in his best position, but on the left wing did really well.

“Harry did a really good job for us, scored a wonderful goal, a Harry Wilson special. That was really cool.

“We tried to set him up a little bit, so it's more comfortable for him. And when he scored the goal, it was just Harry. It was brilliant.”
