Jurgen Klopp shocked the footballing community and Liverpool supporters in particular when the German announced his decision to leave the club. The iconic celebrations, ‘angry’ press conferences and touchline antics will come to a close at the end of the Premier League season. With his decision to leave the club in May, legendary DJ and record producer Calvin Harris posted a picture of himself with the Liverpool squad.

Klopp joined the Reds in 2015 and led the club to their first-ever Premier League title in 2019/20. He also led the club to victory in the UEFA Champions League and multiple domestic accolades as well. However, in a shocking turn of events, the manager gave an interview revealing the areas for his decision and also reiterated his love for the club.

Following Manchester City’s FA Cup game against Tottenham Hotspur, Guardiola talked about how he felt about Klopp’s departure. He admitted that the news came as a ‘slight’ surprise while also admitting that it’ll be a relief for him. The City boss said with a smile:

Personally, at Dortmund and Liverpool, he has been my biggest rival. So, I will certainly miss him. I'm a little bit pleased, because without him I'll sleep a little bit better.

Pep also added with a wide smile that Klopp will definitely be back in the Premier League, even though the latter has not admitted to it. Pep also agreed that every manager can relate to what Klopp said when he pointed to fatigue as a reason for calling time at the club. The two share 6 titles between them, even though Pep owns the majority (5), since the 2017/18 season. As it stands, Liverpool are top of the Premier League with Manchester City five points behind with a game in hand.
