Liverpool lives the best moment of its recent history thanks to Jürgen Klopp, the coach who last season allowed him to raise the Champions League and now propels him towards his first Premier title since 1990. The communion between the fans of Anfield and the Charismatic technician is total, so Fenway Sports Group (FSG), the company that owns the 'Reds' has renewed Klopp until 2024.

"Personally it is a declaration of intent, based on what we have achieved so far and what we have left to achieve," said the coach, 52, in the official statement from Liverpool. "When I see the progress of the club and that the collaboration in the work continues, I feel that my contribution can only grow," added the German. FSG, for its part, called the agreement "a giant step" to become "one of the mainstays of world football."

The Dutchman Pepijn Lijnders and the German Peter Krawietz, regular collaborators of Klopp, will also remain by his side until 2024. Krawietz works with Klopp since the time of Mainz 05, while Lijnders joined Liverpool in 2014, from Porto.

"Made for each other"

Klopp, champion of two Bundesliga titles with Dortmund, recalled the instant crush on his current club. "When the call came in the fall of 2015 I felt that we were made for each other ... I have a total conviction that the collaboration is still completely complementary on both sides," he said.

"Otherwise I would not be re-signing. This club is such a good place that I could not contemplate the option of leaving," said the Premier Premier coach, who on Saturday (1:30 p.m.) receives the Watford after 15 wins and a draw in 16 days. Since last season he has linked 33 games without knowing defeat. In the last 25 Premier matches he has added 24 victories and has scored at least two goals in 23 of them.

Next week, the European champion will travel to Doha to play the Club World Cup, where the winner of the duel between Monterrey and Al-Sadd will be measured in the semifinals.
