Mamadou Sakho has not featured for Liverpool this season

Jurgen Klopp says he will "address the situation" surrounding Mamadou Sakho following the Liverpool defender's outburst on social media.

The 26-year-old, who has been frozen out of the Liverpool squad since being sent home early from the club's pre-season tour of the United States, is yet to make a first-team appearance this season.

Sakho rejected a move to Stoke before the close of the summer transfer window, despite Klopp suggesting a move away from Anfield would be the best solution for the France international.

Prior to Liverpool's 5-1 home victory over Hull on Saturday, Sakho took to Snapchat to speak of his disappointment at his current situation at the club and claimed he had been fully fit for three weeks after recovering from a heel injury.

When asked about Sakho's conduct, Klopp said: "The thing is I was kind of confronted with this, somebody told me this morning there was something I should know about. Actually on a match day I'm really in a completely wrong mood to think about things like this.

"I know something was on the thing that neither of us use [Snapchat].

"But it's not the right moment to speak about it. Most of the times in life it makes sense to think about something and then it's more likely that you give the right answer.

"It's not positive I would say. I will address the situation when I think it's the right moment. I haven't decided when that is yet. But it's not Christmas."

However, Klopp did reserve special praise for left-back Alberto Moreno, who has not started a league match since the opening day of the season and was an unused substitute in the win over Hull.

"To be honest, one of the best players in training in the last few weeks has been Alberto Moreno," Klopp added. "He took the situation [being dropped] brilliantly and is in a really good moment."
