Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has said he is almost certain to leave the club in 2024 when his current contract runs out.
In his six and a half years at the Merseyside club, Klopp has transformed football there, with Liverpool reclaiming their spot as one of the big guns in world football.
His latest trophy triumph was in the Carabao Cup, where his side managed to beat Chelsea via a penalty shootout, and Klopp sensationally likened the trophy to the Champions League.
At the moment, the German is enjoying a purple patch in his Liverpool career after an initial slow start when he took over in 2015, having won the Premier League and Champions League in the last two years.
In his latest press conference on Friday, March 4, Klopp opened up on his future as he admitted his current thoughts were on walking away from the hot seat when his deal expires in 2024.
His new deal, which runs out in two years, was signed in 2019 and at the moment, Klopp has no intentions of renewing it.
“If I have the energy levels for it is important,’ said Klopp as quoted by Daily Mail.
“I love what I do but there must be something else out there in the world apart form always thinking about very well-skilled, good looking, fantastically nice players! But I really don’t think about it.”
‘I’m full of energy but I have to make sure that is the case (in the future). I don’t want to sit around and be more tired and think, “Wow! Why is everyone bothered about the things out there because I couldn’t care less?” ’
