I was allowed to be part of an exciting history with a great coach and an astonishing team in an extraordinary club. We have achieved great titles and have the best fans in the world.
I am full of gratitude for the wonderful time I was able to experience with these unique people supporting the club and the fans who love Liverpool FC.
My wife and I have felt welcomed and supported from day one and together with the kids we had the best imaginable time here.
We will always keep it in special memories."
