But now the current Germany head coach, who managed Liverpool between 2015 and 2024, has changed his mind: "Some time ago I said I would take part in a celebration parade if they took the titles away from Manchester City… - we read in the translation by Cronache di Spogliatoio -. Well, I don’t think that way any more. I don’t feel the need to celebrate, I just want to see and wait".<div data-fco-dynamic-placement="" data-fco-dynamic-placement-type="fcplayer-semantic"><script type="application/json" data-placement="fcplayer-semantic">{"type":"fcplayer-semantic","data":{"embedCode":"//cdn.fcp.codes/embed-code-template/embed-code-template.js#SEMANTIC_5704afb8-c10b-4ba5-9cb4-d7fb6098ef90","embedType":"SEMANTIC","embedId":"5704afb8-c10b-4ba5-9cb4-d7fb6098ef90","publisher":null,"playerId":null,"fallbackChannelId":null}}</script></div><div data-fco-dynamic-placement="" data-fco-dynamic-placement-type="match-schedule" data-fco-embed-id="fco-dynamic-placement:match-schedule"><script type="application/json" data-placement="match-schedule">{"type":"match-schedule","data":{"matchScheduleId":"blt04103d86775e0d8b"}}</script></div>

The German manager, born in 1967, added: "My respect for Guardiola and for the football City played is too great. They were formidable opponents. I have nothing to do with this story, so I am not preparing in any way to celebrate and I feel no emotion about it. I am already perfectly satisfied with what we have achieved at Liverpool. The rest does not interest me." Klopp won one Premier League, one FA Cup, one Community Shield and two League Cups with Liverpool in England. On the international stage, he also lifted one Champions League, one Super Cup and one Club World Cup.
