​Liverpool boss compares Ranieri sacking to Trump and Brexit!

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has said at his press conference that Leicester City's sacking of Claudio Ranieri isn't a surprise.

The Reds face off against Leicester on Monday, in what will be the Foxes' first game since it was announced Ranieri would leave the club.

"Am I surprised that things like this can happen? No. Not just in football," Klopp said.

"There have been a few strange decisions in 16/17 - Brexit, Trump and Ranieri.

"I don't know enough, you have to ask Leicester why they have done it, but we've got to expect the best Leicester City on Monday."
