Leading German figures congratulate Klopp on Liverpool’s title
Top figures in German football including national coach Joachim Loew have heaped praise on Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp for ending the Anfield club’s 30-year title drought.
“They’ve been impressively consistent and absolutely deserve to be champions. You can see how much it means to him just from his emotional reaction. I take my hat off for Jurgen.”
“What he’s done there deserves recognition,” Loew said in a statement issued by the German federation (DFB) on Friday.
Liverpool’s first title in the Premier League era was confirmed Thursday when previous champions Manchester City lost 2-1 at Chelsea.
The domestic honour follows Klopp’s Champions League victory in 2019 with Liverpool and two Bundesligas for Borussia Dortmund.
