There have been speculations that Liverpool are eyeing a transfer for their former playmaker Philippe Coutinho this summer.
The transfer was later backed by Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher, urging Klopp to make a move for the former No.10. despite heavy critics from fans regarding how the Brazilian left a year ago.
But Klopp isn't convinced and hopes Coutinho gets back to his best at the Nou Camp.
"In general, Phil Coutinho helps each team in the world, still, 100% but it's not about that," Klopp told ESPN FC.
"I like Phil, I think he's a fantastic footballer and all that stuff, but it would be a big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big-money signing and it’s not our year for that.
"It's just not possible. As I said, having him would make each team better - us included - but I really hope that he finds his luck at Barcelona.

"Or maybe he found it there. We have contact, but not that close contact that I know exactly how he is doing, but the rest is only newspaper talk and stuff like that.
"If everything was true what newspapers write about me, wow! If it's similar to what they write about me, I would say he's completely happy at Barcelona and wants to sign a new six-year contract or whatever."
