Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is taking advantage of the break for the World Cup in Qatar to relax and give an interview to German radio station WDR, in which he reviewed the reasons for his departure from Dortmund, admitting he would have liked to stay longer in the Bundesliga: "I left earlier than planned and than I would have liked and I still remember the main reason for the end of my time.
Klopp admits that another coach was to blame for his departure from Dortmund: "Tuchel was about to leave for Hamburg and that was the time to take him to Borussia Dortmund. That's why I left a bit earlier than planned," admits the German coach. It all came together with Dortmund's poor results, compared to Klopp's early years, and the Bundesliga side decided to bring Klopp's tenure to an end.

The German coach spent seven seasons in charge of Dortmund, where he won two Bundesligas, a German Cup and two German Supercups, being one of the most loved coaches by the fans, but Klopp has the thorn in his side that he could have managed Dortmund for longer, but Tuchel made it impossible.
Jürgen Klopp came out to a press conference and began to list some of the barbarities that have surrounded the organisation of the Qatar 2022 World Cup: the terrible working conditions, the unclear commissions, the need to adjust the competition to the winter as it was impossible to play in a desert in the summer... Klopp found it all appalling, but he found it even worse when the media asked the players to comment on it.
"That's up to you," he told the journalists. "It's up to you to report this, not to go after the players to wear this or that." That's great. It's a World Football Championship, awarded by the International Football Federation, where the representatives of the different football teams will go... but you don't have to ask the players for anything. They are going to play in a country that flouts the most basic human rights, but you can't even ask them for a gesture of solidarity with those who suffer from these outrages.
