If true… Can only imagine he didn’t get enough assurance from Klopp about game time, Southgate said he is still in the England team, and he prefers money over the causes he has championed (and whose representatives are outraged)
No, I can understand the decision. And I’ve been a big fan of him for years — defending him at the bar I go to nearly every week cause some have never got him. Great captain, won everything with us, and done so much off the pitch.
But he has championed LGBTQI+ in sports. And this feels like a slap in the face to them (Kops out have already spoken out about this). A legend for the club but tarnishing his overall reputation.
And I’d also prefer it have happened earlier so Klopp could have his replacement ready for the Germany camp.
