Jurgen Klopp will leave Liverpool at the end of the season and will do so without ever having been beaten twice by a team in a single Premier League season.
The 56-year-old has just three games left as Reds manager after nine years in charge on Merseyside.
He will leave with many records and achievements under his belt and Opta has revealed an astonishing statistic that shows how difficult it has been to beat his team.
Klopp will leave the Premier League without any team doing a double in a season after Sunday’s 4-2 victory over Tottenham.
Klopp will have officiated 334 top-flight games by that point. The second coach on the list is Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who went 127 games without a team doing the double against his.
Jurgen Klopp will leave Liverpool at the end of the season with an incredible record
In January, Klopp shocked the football world by announcing that he would leave Liverpool at the end of the current campaign.
It doesn’t look like Klopp will get the fairytale ending of a Premier League title after a major drop in form for the Reds, and he doesn’t believe next season would have been any smoother had he stayed at the club.
“Football hasn’t been very good in recent weeks and as a result you start to hear people say I look very tired. I’m just old,” Klopp said in an interview with Sky Sports.
‘I’m about to be 100 percent until the last day. That was always the plan. I was sure that if I didn’t make that decision now, next year could have been difficult. The idea of getting up for another preseason, making big decisions.
‘For that, you really need to be full of energy. 80 percent is not enough. That’s the truth. It’s too much. It’s a 24/7 job. Yes, there are more important things in life, but if you really care about them, then it’s 24/7.
“I did it for quite a while and I knew I couldn’t continue doing it at the level needed for a club like Liverpool.”
With Klopp on the bench, Liverpool have earned a good amount domestically. They reigned supreme in the Premier League in 2020, winning the FA Cup and triumphing twice in the Carabao Cup, including this campaign.
They also won the Champions League in 2019 and that same year they won the Club World Cup and the UEFA Super Cup.
