Jurgen Klopp is confident that Borussia Dortmund can recover from the exodus of star players this summer.

Liverpool boss Klopp, who left his post at Dortmund last summer, believes that the Bundesliga giants will scarcely be affected by the departures.

Ilkay Gundogan and Henrikh Mkhitaryan have both left for Manchester, joining City and United respectively.

Defender Mats Hummels has also departed the Westfalenstadion after announcing that he will be heading to Bayern Munich.

And it could get worse for Dortmund boss Thomas Tuchel, who could see star striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang leave with Manchester City and Real Madrid both considering stumping up his asking fee.

However, Klopp believes that the imminent arrivals will shine for Dortmund.

"Dortmund have managed to sign almost all of Europe's biggest talents this transfer period," Klopp told Bild.

"I am not worried about Borussia Dortmund at all. When I joined BVB, we were in a similar situation.

"If there's one club that can cope with the departure of three key players, it's got to be Borussia Dortmund and coach Thomas Tuchel."

Dortmund have already signed €55million worth of talent this summer.

Turkey's Euro 2016 sensation Emre Mor completed a move before he linked up with his national team, while Barcelona defender Marc Bartra has also joined.

Ousmane Dembele has signed from Rennes while Portugal full-back Raphael Guerreiro has arrived from Lorient.

Midfielders Sebastian Rode and Mikel Merino have also joined the wealth of experience in the team.
