It is already the beginning of the end of an era. After announcing his departure in January, Jürgen Klopp will bid farewell to his Anfield Road audience, nine years after his arrival on the bench of the red club. This Friday, during his last pre-match press conference with Liverpool, the German manager was rather emotional on the eve of the reception of Wolverhampton (5 p.m.), for his last match of the season. “I experienced the most intense week of my life. Yesterday the players said goodbye, we had a barbecue here. I have a lot of emotional moments of course. Saying goodbye is never pleasant, but saying goodbye without feeling sad or hurt would mean that the time was not right. The timing was great. It will be hard”he first explained.

Before taking stock of his time with the Reds and mentioning some regrets. “I know we could have won more, but I can’t change that. We could have earned less too. Not being champion by one point is not a great experience, but it is an experience. I couldn’t have done anything different in those moments. When we don’t score at City when the ball wasn’t over the line, and Aguero scores at Burnley when he’s just over the line. It’s not my fault. We could have won more Champions Leagues. Competing in three finals is an exceptional achievement. There’s a good chance you’ll lose the final, that’s how it is.”he explained, before paying tribute to all the people he met.
