Former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is back in the spotlight with his sharp and candid opinions. In an exclusive interview with GOAL, the German tactician compared football and American sports stars, making unexpected statements. This is reported by Goal.com .
When asked to choose between the New York Knicks and Manchester United, Klopp chose the NBA side without hesitation. While this decision may have delighted Liverpool fans, it might seem insulting to Old Trafford supporters. Klopp did not hide his critical stance toward his long-time Premier League rival.
Klopp also compared his Champions League-winning Liverpool side to the legendary 1990s Chicago Bulls. By ranking his team above the basketball kings led by Michael Jordan, the manager demonstrated his high confidence in the "mentality monsters" winning spirit he built at Liverpool.
At the end of the interview, addressing the "Greatest of All Time" (GOAT) debate, Klopp could not choose between Lionel Messi and Michael Jordan. He humorously replied "Michael Messi and Lionel Jordan" to escape the situation, showing respect for both sports legends.
