Jürgen Klopp is the manager of Liverpool Football Club.

The announcement of Klopp’s resignation mid-season has caused significant shock and raised numerous questions among the Liverpool dressing room, fanbase, and the broader footballing community. According to sources from the Athletic, the Liverpool players are looking to take advantage of the situation by considering the final half of the 2023/24 season as a farewell period with their long-time manager, commonly referred to as a ‘last dance’.

Off the field, Liverpool is expected to experience a tumultuous period as they undertake the task of rebuilding and preparing for the time beyond Klopp’s tenure. It is alleged that the process will commence with the selection of a new sporting director, as the current director Jorg Schmadtke is expected to vacate his role in the near future.

Schmadtke, who assumed the position in the summer, was always seen as a temporary solution, and now the Reds are actively seeking a permanent alternative to lead their managerial search.
