It was expected that Liverpool had to struggle last summer after Jürgen Klopp’s departure, who led the club to incredible success in almost nine years on Merseyside.
However, the successor to the German, Arne Slot, has easy work from one considered the transition period for the red and led the Merseyside giants to Premier League Glory in his debut campaign.
As much as the success of Slot was rightly worshiped, the Dutch trainer has built up on Klopp’s foundations. Liverpool’s success in this term would not have been possible without the 57-year-old, who was still worshiped among the Field believers.
But will Klopp record title celebrations in Liverpool?
Klopp does not have to celebrate his Anfield comeback since departure at the end of last season, but that will change immediately. The Liverpool -Ikon has confirmed that he will return to Merseyside to celebrate the title of the Slot Triumph, and he is expected to be seen at home on Sunday, May 25th during the last game of the Reds Prime Minister League. He is also ready for the trophy parade.
“Yes, the plan is [to celebrate the title with Liverpool]… but not on the bus, “said Klopp during an event in South Africa.” I will be there with the people who see them all grow up [club legends] – That is the idea of being honest. “
When he was asked after a return to Anfield himself, he added: “I didn’t want to go earlier [in the season] To be honest because I didn’t want to mess up. Imagine I’m in the stadium for the first time and you lose!? So I go there when it is decided. “
Klopp will actually get to Merseyside before Liverpool’s last day battle against the Eagles as a guest speaker at the Gala Ball of the LFC Foundation on Friday, May 23, was announced as a guest speaker. He was appointed the first honorary ambassador for the foundation last year.
Klopp announced that after leaving Liverpool, he would take sabbatical for at least a year, and although he has not yet returned to the touchline, he has another job. On January 1, 2025, he began his new role as Global Head of Soccer at Red Bull, where he advised the clubs of the company – RB Leipzig, Red Bull Salzburg, Red Bull Bragantino and New York Red Bulls – about playing style, transfer strategy and coaching.
The move was widely criticized, especially in Germany, where multi-club ownership is particularly frowned upon. Followers of Klopp’s former clubs Mainz and Borussia Dortmund expressed their disappointment about his decision, but that didn’t stop him.
Klopp was associated with a spectacular return to management with Real Madrid, with growing reports about Carlo Ancelotti’s upcoming exit, but such rumors were rejected by the German agent.
