Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp says he won't be tempted away by Bayern Munich.
Franz Beckenbauer identified Kop boss Klopp as the man he wants to rebuild Bayern Munich, after his rampant Liverpool side sent the Bavarian giants crashing out of the Champions League at the last 16 stage in midweek.
But Klopp said: “From my point of view, being here at Liverpool is a really good fit. I love it. The club has given me a lot of opportunities to develop a really good football team.
“Someone told me what was said by Beckenbauer. No, it doesn't put pressure on me.
“I am blessed to have known him for 14 years. It is something quite special and I think I can say we are friends.When he speaks positively about me, it is just like the king knighting a man 'sir'.
“There is no bigger football legend in Germany than Franz Beckenbauer. It's a compliment to me and a compliment to Liverpool. But I am very happy with the clubs I have had and I am very happy with the club I'm at now."
Klopp, 51, added: “I feel good here but if I lose against Fulham what do you think will happen then?
“I really like it when people speak positively about me, because I am like all other human beings. But I wouldn't say I need that praise. If my family and friends think positively of me that's important to me. But all the rest I have no influence on."
