“I’m not really privy to the negotiations so I don’t know what the status is. I do know there are talks going on.
“He’s had an extraordinarily successful time in Dortmund. He has released loads of emotions at Dortmund.
“Looking at it from afar, parallels can be drawn between Liverpool and Dortmund with the fantastic supporters’ culture.
“So Klopp can be a great addition to any team.”
Meanwhile, Germany defender Mats Hummels, who played under Klopp for a number of years at Dortmund, was reluctant to comment until the deal was finalised, but added:
“There’s no doubt he’s a fantastic coach. When people ask: ‘What is he going to do post-Dortmund,’ clubs like Liverpool will naturally enter the fray in that discussion.
“Klopp lives, breathes, eats and thinks football day after day, and he’s a fantastic addition to any side. I’ll certainly keep my fingers crossed for the next step in his career.”
