Liverpool's deal maker Michael Edwards knows about Jurgen Klopp's desire to leave the club in the summer.

Klopp was asked if he may change his mind about departing the Anfield team when this season concludes.

Having announced his departure more than a month ago, Klopp says he will not be going back on his word.

“We had a conversation," said the Liverpool boss on the news that Edwards is now the club's CEO of Football.

“Michael and I have a really good relationship.

“It was always very good on a professional basis, a lot of good things happened in the time obviously we were here together. Michael decided to do something else and now he's back, I'm really happy.

“I've said a few times that I want to see the club in the best possible place after I left, so everything we can do as long as I'm here, I will do. After that, other people have to do it.

“I think it's a top solution, honestly, and our conversation was obviously great.

“We spoke about a lot of things, about what I think about different things, players, stuff like this, situations in the club because I was here all the time when he wasn't, what did change, what might have to change.

“It was a really good talk, and it's top news for the club."
