Jurgen Klopp says Philippe Coutinho is priceless to Liverpool as the Reds continue to resist interest in their star man from Barcelona.

Barca's latest bid, worth €100m, was rejected out of hand on Wednesday with Liverpool continuing to state that Coutinho is not for sale at any price.

Klopp has spoken firmly on the issue already this summer, and in an interview with Sky Sports in Germany the manager has reiterated his stance.

"Liverpool is not a club that has to sell players,” he said. “That is set in stone. So what they pay in the end doesn't matter.

"From a financial standpoint, there is no price limit to let him go. No price at which we are ready to give in.

"Our goal is to have the best possible team. So we want to keep our guys and add new ones. That is our plan."

Klopp added: “Today, no player on the planet is untouchable. But a transfer is also a question of timing and if you have the opportunity and the need to react to such a transfer.

"Also you have to ask, if you have the time to react. But just because of one request of one club, we don't have to think about that. We are not in that situation."

Coutinho is currently nursing a back injury, and is a doubt for Liverpool's Premier League opener at Watford on Saturday.

He has, however, been named in the club's 32-man squad for next week's Champions League trip to Hoffenheim.
