German manager Jürgen Klopp, at Liverpool since 2015, announced his departure from the club at the end of the current season in a message to fans on Liverpool TV. "I can understand it's a shock for a lot of people at the moment when you hear it the first time. I can explain it, I don't have enough energy," said the 56-year-old, who won six major titles with the Reds, including the Champions League (2019) and Premier League (2020).

His deputies Pepijn Lijnders and Peter Krawietz will also leave their posts at the end of the current season, said the current Premier League leaders, who are still alive in the League Cup (qualified for the final), FA Cup (qualified for the fourth round) and Europa League (qualified for the last 16). "When we were sitting together and talking about possible signings, the upcoming pre-season training camp and the possibility of going somewhere, the thought came to me that I wasn't sure I was here anymore, which surprised myself," Klopp said in an interview on Liverpool's website.

Since his arrival at the Mersey club on 8 October 2015, Liverpool have won six major titles, including the Champions League in 2019 and the Premier League in 2020, 30 years after the Reds' last title in the competition.

The moment of his exhaustion

In his explanation, Klopp says he ran out of energy. But on social media they found the exact moment when the German had had enough of FSG's decisions after a statement a few months ago: "When we sat down together to talk about possible signings, the next summer training camp and whether we can go anywhere, the thought came up: 'I'm not sure I'm here anymore' and that surprised me myself. Obviously I'm starting to think about it.
