Sakho speaks out over row with Klopp
The France international angered Klopp on the club’s pre-season tour of the United States where he turned up late to sessions more than once.
Subsequently, he was sent home from the trip and hasn’t played for the first-team at Anfield during this campaign.
Instead, Sakho has been forced to train and play with the under-23 side with the Reds reportedly keen to move him on before the end of the January transfer window.
“It is true that I turned up late. There was a rule that I should have observed. I do not at all see myself as above the rules, I respect everyone.
“I paid my fine, I was sanctioned, I apologised to my team-mates and my manager,” Sakho told Canal Football Club.
“Aside from that… I do not want to go into the controversies.”
Sakho is fit and ready if he gets a move before the deadline with Southampton and Ligue 1 side Nice both being linked with the centre-back.
“I work a lot, I have the chance to train with the reserve team , which allows me to keep up. And beside that I have my trainer. So I work a lot to stay on top of my game,” Sakho added.
However, he has ruled out a move to Marseille due to the club’s rivalry with fellow French outfit Paris Saint-Germain.
“Since I started this incredible adventure abroad, in terms of football but also in terms of my family, because when I see my children speaking English I think it is a glorious thing that I have been able to give them,” Sakho continued.
“I think I have a few more wonderful years to experience abroad first. And PSG, why not, but afterwards.
“I think Marseille have a very good team. Bafé (Gomis) and Pat (Evra) are friends of mine. But my answer to this might remind certain people about a song. When there is PSG, Sakho is with them.”
