THE ATHLETIC
About this episode

Tony Evans is joined by The Athletic's James Pearce and Oli Kay for reaction to the news Jurgen Klopp is to stand down as Liverpool manager at the end of the season.

The German announced the decision on Friday morning despite the Reds battling on four fronts this season with Klopp citing burnout for his decision to step away.

Simon Hughes shares his reaction to the news as well as considering possible successors while Seb Stafford-Bloor gives the view from Germany while Caoimhe O'Neill reports from Anfield on a seismic day in the history of Liverpool Football Club.
