Klopp will win Premier League with Liverpool, says Hummels
The central defender, who worked under Klopp for six years in Germany, is confident his former manager will lead his new club to the domestic title during his reign in charge.
JURGEN KLOPP WILL win the Premier League title with Liverpool, according to Borussia Dortmund centre-back Mats Hummels.
Liverpool haven’t been crowned champions since 1990, but the Germany international expects his former boss to lead the Reds to their 19th league title following his arrival at Anfield.
Klopp lifted two Bundesliga titles and finished as runner-up in the 2012-13 Champions League final during his seven year spell in charge of BVB and Hummels predicts further success in England.
“I am convinced Klopp can win the league at Liverpool,” he said. “He has shown he doesn’t need the biggest transfer budget or the biggest name to win the biggest trophies.”
“Of course there are teams in England that have no financial restrictions when it comes to buying players, but he showed at Dortmund that he has the intelligence to combat that. Perhaps not immediately, but in time I am sure that he can.

“He is a winner, I know him. His long term goal won’t just be to qualify for the Champions League, and settle for that.
“It will be to challenge Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea, and Arsenal for the title, and he is absolutely capable of doing that.”
