Jurgen Klopp: Liverpool's internationals will be on Australia trip

Jurgen Klopp has said he will include his international stars in Liverpool's trip to Australia at the end of May.

Liverpool play Sydney FC at the ANZ Stadium in a friendly on May 24, three days after the final game of the Premier League season.

Despite the match coming shortly before World Cup qualifiers in early June, Klopp has said his star players will not be left behind.

"What we can say 100 percent is that we want to present Liverpool as good as possible," the Liverpool Echo reported him as saying. 

"To be honest, we will go with pretty much everybody. They will all go there even if they don't play, they will be involved with other things.

"There are one or two [who could miss the trip] but that involves other things, not international call-ups.

"No international player is out already, so we will show the best and nicest faces of LFC."

Former Liverpool players Steven Gerrard, Jamie Carragher, Daniel Agger and Steve McManaman are all set to play a part for Klopp's side.

He added: "It makes sense to import these legends, and they're really happy about it."

The visit will be Liverpool's first to Sydney, and could sell out the 83,000-capacity ANZ Stadium.
