Jurgen Klopp says he has not been reminded of the importance of qualifying for the Champions League by Liverpool’s owners.
Jurgen Klopp said: “The main reason for qualifying for the Champions League is always for financial reasons. It is a great competition to play in, but for the club, you want to excite some players to join. In the beginning it was like this [at Liverpool]. We are sitting there and there were some players who had offers from other clubs who were playing in the Champions League and it was always: ‘OK, sorry, we can only offer nothing or the Europa League.’ But apart from that, it is always about financial reasons and this year is no different I would say. Of course, it is very important, absolutely, but even though it is important, we cannot change the things. So I hope we will still see that we will do our best and try absolutely everything to make it happen. But we will see how that will end up and that is it, pretty much. If you ask me, it is not that the owners have called me and said: ‘If you don’t qualify for the Champions League then this or that will happen.’ That has not happened because we were all together in the situation. We all understand this situation and [the owners] know that we try absolutely everything to qualify for the Champions League again. That is clear.”
