Will Jurgen Klopp be attending Liverpool’s title parade?
There’s every chance Liverpool fans might also catch a glimpse of their former gaffer, with Jurgen Klopp having teased he’ll be in attendance for the parade. Whether he’s on the bus though is a different story.
Speaking earlier this year, the ex-Reds manager said: “Yes, the plan is [to be there for the celebrations] but not on the bus. I will be there where the people are. That’s the idea, but we will see. I will be there for the last game.
“I didn’t want to go earlier to be honest because I didn’t want to jinx it! They win all the time and I’m the first time in the stadium and they lose! So, I’ll go there when it’s decided.”
