Breaking News: Klopp Extends Liverpool Contract Until 2026

Klopp, who was appointed Liverpool manager in October 2015, would have seen his previous deal expire in 2024.

He had mulled over the possibility of taking a sabbatical when his ends but has been re-energized by his side's chase for an unprecedented quadruple this season.

Liverpool have already won the Carabao Cup this term, adding to the UEFA Champions League, UEFA Super Cup, FIFA Club World Cup and Premier League titles they have already won under the German.

There is still the chance to win the FA Cup as well as the Premier League and Champions League again this term.

“There are so many words I could use to describe how I am feeling about this news … delighted, humbled, blessed, privileged and excited would be a start,” Klopp said. 

“There is just so much to love about this place. I knew that before I came here, I got to know it even better after I arrived and now I know it more than ever before.

“Like any healthy relationship, it always has to be a two-way street; you have to be right for each other. The feeling we were absolutely right for each other is what brought me here in the first place and it’s why I’ve extended previously.

“This one is different because of the length of time we have been together. I had to ask myself the question: Is it right for Liverpool that I stay longer? Along with my two assistant managers, Pep Lijnders and Pete Krawietz, we came to the conclusion it was a ‘Yes!’

“There is a freshness about us as a club still and this energises me. For as long as I have been here, our owners have been unbelievably committed and energetic about this club and it is clear that right now this applies to our future as much as I’ve ever known.”
