The German tactician bids farewell to Anfield this weekend after nine years, during which he became one of the club's most likeable and successful managers in history.

Klopp announced in January this season would be his last in England, a decision that came as a surprise to many as he still had two years remaining on his deal at the club.

On Sunday, the Reds will take on Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League in what will be an emotional occasion for the 56-year-old and his family, with the match set to cap off what Klopp says has been a hectic few days.

"The most intense week of my life," he said, according to the Daily Mail.

"Great moments already, we don't have to pretend it's a normal week because it isn't. I'm a very pragmatic person I have been saying it's last game and then holidays, business as usual.

"We had a barbecue here yesterday with the players. The day before with the staff from Chapel St. It's a lot. Saying goodbye is never nice.

"But saying goodbye without feeling sad would mean the time we spent together wasn't great."

It is expected that Feyenoord manager Arne Slot will replace Klopp at Anfield ahead of next season, with the Dutchman having said earlier this month he will lean on the German for advice should he get the job.
