Jurgen Klopp Explains Why He Left Liverpool<\/h2>\n

Speaking to the media at his Red Bull<\/a> unveiling, Jurgen Klopp opened up on why he left Liverpool.<\/p>\n

Klopp told reporters that he felt that he ‘couldn’t do the job anymore’ after 25 years in management.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cI always said I loved what I do but the moment when I felt I couldn’t do the job anymore that was it. It was the same at Mainz, Dortmund and Liverpool. I am brutally honest with myself.<\/em><\/p>\n

“It was not only energy. After more than 1,000 games on the sideline, thousands of press conferences I didn’t want to do it anymore. I didn’t want to stop working either, I just wanted to do something different and a new start, and this opportunity gives that.<\/em><\/p>\n

“There were things I heard but I didn’t have any plans in this direction. I was focused on being a manager and I wanted to be the best version of myself in that role. When you are in the job I was in for so long, it is super intense.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Klopp when explaining why he left Liverpool<\/a> went on to add that he doesn’t want to prepare for games every week and wants to focus on the ‘bigger picture in football’.<\/p>\n

He said: “I no longer have to improve the game in individual places, but I want to make football better all over the world. No longer prepare a new game every week, but work on the bigger picture.”<\/em><\/p>\n
