Klopp transformed Liverpool back into one of Europe’s most feared outfits since he took charge in October 2015 and has won everything.
The Kop icon will forever be lovingly remembered as the man who ended their 30-year title drought.
And he also led the Reds to three Champions League finals,- tasting success in 2019.
Klopp says he informed Liverpool chiefs of his decision to step down last NOVEMBER but players and staff only learned of his exit yesterday.
And he revealed that there were “tears” when he told his squad as the countdown officially starts to the end of his reign.
While Liverpool fans were struggling to contain their emotions – with one even stating that he would rather his wife left him than Klopp quit Anfield – Manchester United fans declared it was the best news ever.
And legendary Red Devils defender Neville could not resist making a slight jibe towards the Reds and his Liverpool legend Sky Sports co-pundit Carragher with a three-word message.
Neville posted a photo of himself and Carragher smiling, seemingly on a previous night out somewhere.
And he decided to caption it with the words: “Klopp’s leaving do”.
Fans instantly hit back at his wind-up, but not everybody was aggressive.
One wrote: “Let’s be honest, you gotta love the banter Neville’s got.”
Another wrote: “That’s f***ing fantastic banter Gary.”
A third said: “He’s done you here Jamie ahaha.”
While a fourth declared: “Nevs crack is brilliant.”
Meanwhile, Carragher reacted to the bombshell yesterday by saying: “This news was always going to be a body blow to the club whenever it came.
“I just thought it would be another few years away.
“What a manager, what a man, let’s go out with a bang Jurgen!”
The Reds are currently five points clear at the top of the Premier League, they will face Chelsea in the Carabao Cup Final next month, and they are also still in both the FA Cup and Europa League.
