Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has admitted that he feels sorry for Frank Lampard after being sacked by Everton and is sure that the Chelsea legend will return management.
Lampard lost his job on Monday with the Toffees sat second-bottom of the Premier League table, having taken over at Goodison Park 12 months ago and mounting a survival charge. Despite their previous touchline spat, Klopp commended his now former opposite number for his initial good work and felt Lampard was dealt a difficult hand on the blue half of Merseyside, noting the £60million sale of star player Richarlison this past summer.
"I feel for Frank. He tried everything. It was not easy for him last year ands he did well," the Liverpool manager remarked on Friday, with Everton now set to appoint ex-Burnley boss Sean Dyche as Lampard's replacement. "Losing Richarlison and we know how much decision injuries can affect them. Frank will come back. He's still a young coach and everything is ahead of him."
