Fans were left heartbroken when Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp revealed he would be leaving the role back in January.
Explaining he was 'running out of energy' Klopp said that while he loves the team, he felt he had to take the decision to leave the club.
Speaking earlier this year, the 56-year-old said: "I can understand that it’s a shock for a lot of people in this moment, when you hear it for the first time, but obviously I can explain it – or at least try to explain it.

"But that I still take this decision shows you that I am convinced it is the one I have to take.
"It is that I am, how can I say it, running out of energy. I have no problem now, obviously, I knew it already for longer that I will have to announce it at one point, but I am absolutely fine now.

"I know that I cannot do the job again and again and again and again.
“After the years we had together and after all the time we spent together and after all the things we went through together, the respect grew for you, the love grew for you and the least I owe you is the truth – and that is the truth."
So, what are Klopp's plans for retirement?

According to pundit Mark Lawrenson, Klopp is planning to relocate to Mallorca with his wife, Ulla.
"I'm not sure I should tell you this but it's not a massive secret. He's having a house built in Mallorca," Lawrenson told Off the Ball.
"I have a house somewhere not far away from where he's building his. Ulla, his wife, is in charge of everything in terms of that, and he said: 'The bloody thing's not even ready yet, and I'm paying all the bills!'
"So he's probably going to retreat to there for a while, I would suggest.

"I can tell you now, it's not a nice gaff, it's an absolutely fabulous gaff. It's sensational, it really seriously is."

According to reports, the house - which once belonged to artist Rolf Knie, was purchased back in 2022 for £3.4m, with the couple now completely rebuilding the property.
Bild reports that the villa will be low-energy, with interconnected heating systems and appliances that can be controlled from Klopp's phone, reducing electricity consumption by 75 per cent.

Klopp will certainly be missed by fans as during his time as manager, Liverpool have won one each of the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup and League Cup.
