Ragnar Klavan has revealed an incredible story of how Jurgen Klopp tried to sign him.

The Estonian was signed from Augsburg in 2016 for a fee of £4.2 million - which made him the most expensive Estonian of all time - but upon finding out that Jurgen Klopp wanted to bring him to the guy, he thought it was all a prank.

He gave an interview to Des Kelly of BT Sport prior to the away game against Sevilla and revealed that when he received a text from Klopp, expressing interest in him.

However, the 32-year old wasn't having it and asked for confirmation that it was him. And hilariously that confirmation arrived in the form of a selfie from Klopp.

Twitter has been full of reactions, with Liverpool fans absolutely loving the little anecdote of their crazy manager:

We really want to see that selfie...
