The separation from manager Jurgen Klopp was also a shock to Mohamed Salah (Liverpool).
Liverpool will end the "Klopp era" with the end of this season. Liverpool announced its separation from Klopp in January. Liverpool said, "Coach Klopp has expressed his intention to step down as manager after this season, and the club has decided to accept it."
Klopp said in an interview with the club, "I know a lot of people will be shocked. I love everything about Liverpool. There is no problem at all. However, I have run out of energy."
Klopp also revealed the reason why he suddenly announced the news in the middle of the season. "It is common to say goodbye after the end of the season. However, it was impossible because there were many issues in that case. I was confident so I decided to make the announcement. Our employees need to know the news quickly. That way, the club can prepare for the future."
Liverpool hired Klopp in October 2015. Liverpool, which was going through a dark period at the time, hired Klopp to regain its glory, which was the best option. Liverpool has grown to be one of the best teams in Europe under Klopp.
Liverpool won the UEFA Champions League during the 2018-19 season. In the next season, it even acquired the Premier League title that it really wanted. Klopp wrote the history of winning the first championship after the inauguration of the Premier League.
The shocking news that manager Salado Klopp was leaving Liverpool was not easily believed. Salah left AS Roma for Liverpool in the 2017-18 season. Since he had a memory of failing at Chelsea, he was suspected a lot at the time of the transfer, but Salah grew into the best striker in the Premier League under Klopp.
According to British Sports Bible on the 9th, Salah said, "I saw Klopp's agent on the day of the meeting. I thought he was signing a contract. Then Virgil van Dijk told me, 'The coach is leaving.' I asked, 'Why?'" he said. 메이저사이트
"It's a natural phenomenon. Several players have left the club since the past. The same applies to the coach. Of course, not now, but you will one day. We have to accept this," he said.
