Jurgen Klopp reveals plans after Liverpool's final game and has £3.4m luxury villa to enjoy retirement life
Jurgen Klopp will leave Liverpool this summer and has given us a glimpse of what his immediate life will be like.
The German surprisingly announced in January that leave the reds at the end of the season after almost nine years in office.
Klopp will leave after guiding them to Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup, League Cup, Super Cup and Club World Cup success.
His final game in charge will be at home against Wolves on Sunday, with Anfield set for an emotional atmosphere as they say goodbye.
And on the morning of the game, Liverpool released his final interview with Klopp in which they reflected on their mandate.

“(He) champions league final “With (former club Borussia) Dortmund (against Real Madrid), they invited me, so we'll see.”
Klopp was then asked if there was anywhere he could go on holiday to unwind and avoid his departure from Liverpool.
“It's not like I tried very hard, so I didn't have time,” he said. “I had time, but for me a summer holiday, at least at the end of the season, was like lying on the first available sun lounger and having a phone here and talking to agents, sporting directors and things like that.
“I didn't have training sessions, yes, but the rest pretty much continued. That means I didn't see one percent of the world in vain.

“Now we won't do anything, we'll look at the euros here and there, looking forward to it and then we'll go on holiday doing nothing and then the plan is to start traveling and we'll see how it goes.”
Klopp bought a luxury villa in Mallorca for £3.4 million in 2022 and it will be the perfect place to rest and recover.
When he initially announced his departure, Klopp said that will not be driving another club or country “for at least one year”.
He also said that if he returns to the dugout then he “100 per cent” won't be at any other Premier League team.
What is certain, however, is that Klopp will take to the Anfield touchline one last time to end an incredible spell at Liverpool.
