Jurgen Klopp, Liverpool’s chief, shifted the conversation when asked about the progress of Liverpool’s Dutch duo, Cody Gakpo and Ryan Gravenberch. He inquired about the relationship between the journalist and the colleague who posed the question.
Klopp then made a playful remark before moving on to the original topic. The interview took place after Ajax’s 2-2 draw with Fortuna Sittard last month, where Henderson, who joined Ajax in January, was questioned about the match.
This led to a heated exchange with a reporter, prompting Klopp to step in and request an apology on behalf of Henderson before shifting the focus back to the original question about Gakpo and Gravenberch. Klopp expressed confidence in Liverpool’s home advantage and highlighted the importance of the crowd in creating a positive atmosphere.
He emphasized the team’s responsibility to perform well to maintain this atmosphere, acknowledging the fans’ optimism about the team. Klopp conveyed his anticipation for the upcoming match and the support from the fans.
