Jurgen Klopp has taken his Liverpool squad on a two-day bonding trip to Barcelona.

The Reds flew straight to Catalonia following Sunday’s dramatic 4-3 defeat to Bournemouth.

Klopp believes that escaping the freezing temperatures on Merseyside will benefit his players as the focus turns to next Sunday’s home clash with West Ham.

The manager prides himself on the unity and spirit in the squad and sees the trip as an opportunity to strengthen that further.

Monday is a recovery day for the squad with a team meal organised for the evening. On Tuesday the Liverpool squad will train in the city - where the temperature is around 17 degrees - before going to the Nou Camp to watch Barcelona’s Champions League clash with Borussia Monchengladbach.

There will be a reunion with former Liverpool striker Luis Suarez, who is expected to feature for the hosts. Luis Enrique’s side have already won Group C with Gladbach assured of a Europa League spot in third.

The Liverpool squad will then fly home on Wednesday to continue their preparations for the visit of the Hamnmers.
