Manager Jurgen Klopp savored the final moments of leading Liverpool as he appeared alone at Anfield.
Klopp stood alone at Anfield before Liverpool’s final match under his tenure as head coach.
Before Liverpool’s final match of the season against Wolves on May 19th, coach Jurgen Klopp was seen alone quietly contemplating Anfield stadium.
The German coach stood for a while on the empty stands before stepping onto the pitch, gazing up at the sky, showing a thoughtful expression. The 56-year-old coach might want to fully embrace the atmosphere here.
This image touched the hearts of many Liverpool fans. “He needs to be sculpted into a statue,” “I hope Klopp leaving is just a dream,” “He doesn’t want to leave,” “I’m not ready to witness this yet”… these are the common reactions of the club’s supporters.
When Klopp announced his departure from Liverpool, the team had a great chance of winning the quadruple. However, the form of “The Kop” unexpectedly declined in the final stages. They gradually fell in the FA Cup, Europa League, and lost hope of winning the Premier League title. Klopp’s consolation was the Carabao Cup.
Klopp’s contract was due to expire in the summer of 2026 but he left before that. Klopp has been leading Liverpool since 2015, helping the club win 1 Premier League title, 1 FA Cup, 1 Super Cup, 1 UEFA Champions League, and 1 FIFA Club World Cup.
It is known that tickets to witness the final match of the German strategist at Anfield as Liverpool’s coach were sold for more than 400 times the original price. Klopp’s public decision to leave Liverpool drew a lot of attention to his final match.
Feyenoord’s coach Arne Slot will take over from Klopp after the 2023/24 season ends.
