• His press conference was interrupted by an unusual phone call

Jurgen Klopp was speaking to the media ahead of the title race encounter between Liverpool and Arsenal when he was interrupted by an unusual phone call.

After a resounding 4-1 victory over the Gunners' city rivals Chelsea, Liverpool will travel to the Emirates Stadium to play Mikel Arteta’s men on Sunday.

The first leg between the two sides ended in a draw after Mohamed Salah’s wicked show cancelled out Gabriel Magalhaes’s opener. Trent Alexander-Arnold hit the bar in the second half.

The Reds are top of the Premier League table after 22 games with 51 points and are five clear of their opponents on Sunday, who have 46 points from the same number of games.

Klopp's press conference interrupted

As seen in a video by Sky Sports, Klopp’s press conference was interrupted by a phone call from his dentist, sending the media room into a laughter that even the manager could not believe.

Though he did not disclose who the call was from, it is most likely from Dr Robbie Hughes, a popular figure with the Liverpool staff, having worked with the manager and other players, including Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane.

At the same time, it could be some script after the club announced in an official statement that they have begun filming an exclusive documentary series to capture Klopp's final days, who will leave the club at the end of the season.

The German would like to bow out on a high note and win his second league title in charge of the Merseyside club. He says his team must remain fantastic until the end.
