Jurgen Klopp has congratulated his counterpart, Pep Guardiola and rival team, Manchester City for the title of champion.

The Liverpool coach had only praise for the Citizens, saying the title he won was well deserved.

“Congratulations to Man City, Pep Guardiola, the players and the staff and all the fans. It was a tough race, a title race. We made it interesting, but you are one point ahead and it matters,” said Klopp.

“It makes you champions. With much merit. You fought hard today, we fought hard too.”

Liverpool did not manage to win the title in this edition, as they finished only one point behind City, which won the second title in a row.

Liverpool already remain focused on the Champions League final and should hope for the title in England next year.
