Dede says Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is a fan of Brazilian football and footballers.

Former left-back Dede played for Klopp at Borussia Dortmund.

He told ESPN: "He likes Brazilians a lot. Some get along, others don't, which is normal. But he really likes our football, which has a creative way of improvising in a small space.

“He is a happy guy and on a daily basis there's friendship. He demands from anyone he has to and says what he needs to say.

"That I think is very cool for him. Klopp knows how to take everything the player has and even what the guy thinks he doesn't have."
