And the former Reds coach has also urged Jurgen Klopp to secure a top goalkeeper before the window shuts.
A transfer for Lyon playmaker Fekir fell through at the final hurdle over concerns with his medical and knee injury history.
Despite the move falling through before the World Cup began, Liverpool could reopen talks after the tournament, having initially had a £53m agreement in place.
France are through to the semi-finals but negotiations with Lyon may well take place again once Fekir returns.
Elsewhere, a new No.1 remains on Klopp’s agenda if he can get a top-class keeper for good value.
