Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp admits he felt like he was knighted last week.

Franz Beckenbauer declared he wanted to see Klopp move to Bayern Munich after Liverpool won their Champions League tie.

Klopp responded: "No, it does not bring extra pressure.

“I am blessed to have known him for fourteen years.

I can say that we are friends, even though we don't speak often. When he says something positive about me, it feels like the king is knighting me to Sir.

"His words are also a compliment to Liverpool, but Bayern has also committed few missteps over the past ten or fifteen years, though."
