Will Hwang Hee-Chan (28, Wolverhampton) be the ‘villain’ to spoil Jürgen Klopp’s (57) final game as Liverpool manager?
Liverpool will take on Wolverhampton Wanderers in the final match of the 38th round of the 2023-2024 Premier League season at 0:00 a.m. ET on May 20 in Liverpool, England.
The Reds were in a tight race for the title this season with Manchester City (1st, 88 points) and Arsenal (2nd, 86 points), but faded late in the season. They are now 11 points clear of fourth-placed Aston Villa (68 points), who have secured third place in the league.
It’s a final round where everything is settled, there’s nothing to play for, but the stakes are high. It will be Klopp’s last game in charge of Liverpool, having led the club since 2015.
“Jürgen Klopp has announced his intention to leave the club at the end of the 2023-2024 season,” Liverpool announced on the club’s official website in January.
Klopp began his managerial career in 2001 after finishing his playing career at FSV Mainz 05, where he immediately took over the reins. 안전놀이터 He then took charge of Borussia Dortmund in 2008, winning two Bundesliga titles and a UEFA Champions League runner-up finish.

“Klopp has revealed his decision to Liverpool and explained the reasons behind it,” Liverpool said.
“I know this will come as a shock to many people when they hear it for the first time. But I can explain it clearly,” Klopp said.
“I love everything about this club, I love everything about the city of Liverpool, I love everything about the supporters, I love the team, I love the staff, I love everyone, but I have to make this decision. I love everyone, but I have made this decision because I am convinced that it is the right thing to do.”
Klopp added: “I don’t know how to say it…the energy is running out. Obviously, I have no problem. I knew for a long time that I would have to make an announcement at some point, but now I’m really fine. I know I can’t do this over and over and over and over again,” he said.
He added: “I already informed the club in November and there are no problems now. There will be a goodbye at the end of this season. I am grateful to Liverpool.”
Klopp led Liverpool to their first league title in 30 years in the 2019-2020 season. He also won the UEFA Champions League in the 2018-2019 season and has lifted eight trophies in total, including the two above.
