Harvey Elliott, a young player for Liverpool, shared his feelings about the day Jurgen Klopp announced he was leaving the club. Klopp's departure marked the end of a successful nine-year period where he won seven major titles, including the Premier League and the Champions League. Elliott, who joined Liverpool as a teen in 2019, said the announcement caught the team off guard. Klopp called the players to an unexpected meeting, which was unusual for him. Elliott recalled a strange atmosphere as the team quietly processed the news. He noted that it felt like losing someone important. New manager Arne Slot took over after Klopp's departure. He has started well, leading the team towards a likely Premier League title. Slot has maintained contact with Klopp, acknowledging the strong foundation he inherited. Elliott believes Klopp deserves recognition for his contributions and suggests a statue should be built in his honor. He feels Klopp created a sense of unity among players and fans. Elliott stated that Klopp's legacy will endure for a long time and firmly regards him as a club legend.
