Jurgen Klopp may have predicted his move to become the manager of Liverpool 10 years ago.
At the time, Klopp was the manager of Borussia Dortmund and was asked whether he would ever manage in England - a question he didn't shut down, but insisted the timing must be "right".
Luckily for Liverpool, in October 2015, the timing was perfect for Klopp to come back into management after leaving his role in Germany to become the much-loved boss of the Reds.

When asked by a reporter in a press conference a decade ago about managing in England, this was Klopp's reply to Sky Sports : "It's very important in life for all of us, for me and for all of the other guys to be in the right moment and the right place. We all feel it that we are in the right moment at the right place, it's Borussia Dortmund.
"So, unfortunately, I'm 46, in some cases of life it's not so young and in some cases it's young enough. I have to work and I want to work for a few more years.
"Maybe in the future, if my English is better and then I understand people from Liverpool and Manchester. Maybe I will come to England. But, in this moment, there's no chance to think about it."
