LIVERPOOL (AFP): Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp was overcome with emotion as he dedicated the club's first league title in 30 years to the fans on Thursday (June 25).
Klopp wiped away tears of joy during a television interview minutes after Chelsea's 2-1 win against Manchester City sealed the Premier League crown for Liverpool."Tonight, it is for you out there.
But the German promised Liverpool will hold a celebratory parade through the city when it is safe to do so. A first league title in three decades caps a meteoric rise for the Reds back to the top of the English game after Klopp arrived in 2015 with the club struggling just to break into the top four. "It's just been a really exciting ride from the first day I arrived and it is not over yet, that's the good thing.
"What a season. We've been incredible. To be part of this group of players and part of this journey is incredible and I am very proud to be able to call myself a Premier League winner," he said.
