Manchester United midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan has thanked Jurgen Klopp for the advice that helped him through a tough start to his Old Trafford career, reports BBC Sport.
Liverpool boss Klopp counseled the player through a difficult time when they were at Borussia Dortmund in 2013.
"I am thankful to Klopp. He worked on my personality and the psychological part," 28-year-old Mkhitaryan said.
The Armenian spent two seasons working under Klopp in Germany before the coach quit, later taking over at Liverpool in October 2015.
"At Dortmund, I was very stressed after a few games when we were playing really bad," added Mkhitaryan, who has scored five times this season.
"Klopp showed me the way. He supported me and told me I had to keep my head up because good things were coming. He helped me to become a player."
