Liverpool were able to keep their second clean sheet of the season after beating Arsenal 4-0 at Anfield yesterday.
The Reds were inconsistent at the back last season and so far, they have not adequately reinforced their defense this summer.
Klopp has only lured a new left back in the form Andrew Robertson this summer and the Scottish international has just made one appearance so far. The Merseysiders desperately need to strengthen their central defense as they lack quality and depth in the department.
Southampton star Virgil van Dijk will surely make Liverpool stronger at the back and the latest reports are very intriguing.

Recently, we covered a report (via Irish Independent) claiming that Van Dijk has changed his agent to force his exit. The Irish source confirmed that Liverpool is his favored destination and that fact has been confirmed by other British sources in the past as well (Mirror).
More recently, The Sun covered an exclusive report and claimed that at the Saints’ training HQ, the £60m rated center half furiously explained his point and confirmed that he wants out of the club before the deadline ends on Thursday.
The British source have claimed that the likes of Arsenal and Chelsea are interested in the 26-year-old defender as well.
The Blues have already lured a top center half in the form of Antonio Rudiger this summer and they are strong at the back. Arsenal do have options as well but they should consider signing Virgil after getting thrashed by Liverpool.
