Liverpool: Jurgen Klopp praises goals against Man City
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp was stopped from becoming Manchester United manager by his wife, it has been claimed.
The German was tipped to move to Old Trafford after the Red Devils axed David Moyes in 2014 following their failure to qualify for the Champions League.
Klopp was making a name for himself at Borussia Dortmund at the time, helping them win back to back Bundesliga titles and steering his side to the Champions League final in 2013.
And former Liverpool star Phil Thompson, speaking to TV2, has revealed Klopp would have become United manager if it wasn’t for his wife.
