Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is set to leave his position at the end of the current campaign.
Klopp became manager of the Reds in October 2015, and his contract was set to expire in 2026.
In 2019–20, after winning the Champions League the year before, he guided Liverpool to their first league title in thirty years.
The Liverpool Football Club took to their official X social media page, and said, “Jürgen Klopp has announced his decision to step down as #LFC manager at the end of the season, having informed the club’s ownership of his wish to leave his position in the summer.”
Klopp, in an interview with the Liverpool website, said, “I told the club already in November.”
He said, “Doing a press conference, doing an official announcement is a rare thing to do in that situation; we just want to make sure that everybody who is with us gets informed in the best possible way.
“But after this I’m completely in the Norwich game, I’m completely in the Chelsea game, in the Arsenal game, whatever game is coming up. I’m completely in that. There is no need for any farewell parties now, there is a long season to go.
“I want to be 100 percent in it, and I am. I am. Nobody has to worry about my mindset. It would be really cool if you just could accept my decision as a difficult one but the right one.”Ozioma Samuel-Ugwuezi
