Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has revealed that the emotional high of his side’s Champions League triumph inspired him to join the Common Goal charity.
Klopp will join a host of star names from the world of football, including Manchester United’s Juan Mata and FIFA Women’s Player of the Year Megan Rapinoe, by donating one percent of his salary to aid the work of charities across the world.
The 52-year-old, who was crowned FIFA Men’s Coach of the Year on Monday, told the Players Tribune of difficult times he suffered early in his career as an amateur footballer, working in a warehouse while trying to support his young family.
