Manchester City coxswain Josep Guardiola has admitted that he will miss Jurgen Klopp, who left Liverpool.
With a 2-0 win over Wolverhampton on Sunday, Klopp ended his career at Liverpool, which he has coached since October 2015.
Over the past seven years, Klopp has only managed to break City’s hegemony in the Premier League once, but Guardiola is immensely grateful that he had such a stubborn opponent.
“I will miss him very much. Jurgen was a really important part of my life. He took me to a new level as a coach. We have incredible respect for each other. He has helped me many times. I wish him all the best and hope his final match turned out to be special for him. Jurgen will be remembered at Liverpool on the same level as Shankly and Paisley,” Guardiola was quoted as saying by The Independent.
