Liverpool coach Jürgen Klopp speaks words of praise to the biggest coach rival after winning the league title.
The new Liverpool coach Jürgen Klopp has described his colleague Pep Guardiola as the best football coach in the world. “He is the best of all the coaches I know,” he said in an interview with “Bild” on Saturday about the Spaniard from Manchester, who was also active in Barcelona and FC Bayern
Klopp said that he himself would find it a little strange if some people would call him that. “I can’t do anything with it, even though I was very happy to receive the FIFA award,” he said of this year’s award for being the best coach by the world association.
Although he had been very successful with Liverpool in recent years, he also had a good coaching staff and an excellent team to thank for that. “If I have a strength, it is to bring good people together,” said the 53-year-old, who was German champion and DFB Cup winner with Borussia Dortmund. With Liverpool, the former FSV Mainz 05 coach won the Champions League in the previous season and has now won the English championship for the first time in 30 years.
