Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp said the biggest success of his career - which includes a Champions League title, two Bundesliga titles and a Premiership title - was getting promoted with Mainz to the top flight of German football in 2004. "The conditions were so bad that nobody thought it was possible. But we kept our nerve and we made it. After that I won more important titles, but also because I had better teams at my disposal, better conditions, more money," Klopp said during a visit to Mainz.

"It's not about how things look from the outside, it's about how you feel it," Klopp added.Unexpected triumph tastes better. Klopp recalled that he had won promotion with players whose careers were all but over and who had been given a kind of second chance with him. Mainz was Klopp's first team as coach. Then followed Borussia Dortmund, with whom he won the Bundesliga in 2011 and in 2012, when he also won the German Cup.

 

In 2013, he led Dortmund to the Champions League final, which they lost 2-1 to Bayern. In 2015, Klopp signed for Liverpool, with whom he won the Champions League in 2019, the Premiership in 2020 and the FA Cup in 2022. Luis Diaz can breathe easy: Jürgen Klopp will not heed Germany's call and will continue to serve out his contract at Liverpool, as he officially announced on Wednesday (20 September) via RTL.

Klopp not leaving Liverpool

The German Football Association (DFB) had reportedly sounded out the possibility of signing Klopp, but no sooner had they knocked on the door than they were met with an insurmountable wall that at first sight denied any possibility of him leaving Liverpool at the start of the season. For this reason, the DFB had to turn to Julian Nagelsmann, who, in a matter of hours, will become the new head coach of the four-time world champions on the road to Euro 2024, which they will host.
