Rodgers, appointing Jurgen Klopp as their new
manager.
Jurgen Klopp has been named as Liverpool's new manager.
Liverpool sacked Brendan Rodgers last Sunday after an
underwhelming start to the season, and the club have
moved quickly to replace him with former Borussia Dortmund
boss Klopp.
Klopp, who left Dortmund at the end of last season, has jumped
at the chance to manage Liverpool, who have won just two of
their last nine games in all competitions.
The 48-year-old's seven-year spell at Signal Iduna Park yielded
two Bundesliga titles, a DFB-Pokal and a run to the 2013
Champions League final, where Dortmund were beaten by
domestic rivals Bayern Munich.
Upon leaving Dortmund in May, Klopp insisted he would take a
sabbatical from the game to recharge his batteries.
However, the lure of Liverpool has proven too strong and the
German is likely to take charge of his new team for the first time
in next Saturday's Premier League fixture at Tottenham.
