Liverpool hero Hamann insists no Klopp feud

While Hamann admits he may have been outspoken as a pundit, there is no bad blood between the two.

I never had a problem with him," he insisted to the Liverpool Echo on the departing manager, who will be replaced by Arne Slot.

I understand when I said something about the club or the team, it's never personal.

And I understand that he defends the team, the club, himself. It's all fine because obviously it's a high-pressure job.

I've never had a problem with him, I still don't, and if I do see him, I'll have a chat with him if he agrees to it. No hard feelings, all good."
