The German tactician took the Reds' charge in October 2015 after a successful stint at Dortmund and in the very first press conference, he promised the fans that he would win everything for the club and he did win everything. Not only the trophies but the faith of Liverpool's fans. Jurgen Klopp went toe to toe with Pep Guardiola's side every season despite not having as many funds as Man City.
He has already won the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup, Carabao Cup, UEFA Super Cup, and FIFA Club World Cup triumphs during his time on Merseyside. The Reds were also pushing for four trophies this season but it looks like they'll have to bid Klopp goodbye with only the Carabao Cup.
Huge shocking news to the footballing world came on 26th January, Friday when Jurgen Klopp announced that he would leave the club at the end of the 2023/24 season. His contract was running until 2026, but he has confirmed he is stepping away from his role as he is "running out of energy".

Jurgen Klopp did the unthinkable and lifted the Champions League Trophy with Liverpool in the 2018/19 season after beating Tottenham Hotspur 2-0 in the Final at the Metropolitano Stadium in Madrid, Spain.

2. UEFA Super Cup (2019)
Klopp's second trophy with Liverpool came after beating Europa League winners Chelsea in the Super Cup. After both sides played out a dramatic 2-2 draw, the Reds scored all five of their penalty kicks to win yet another European trophy.

After conquering Europe, Liverpool went on to conquer the rest of the world by the end of 2019. Roberto Firmino scored an extra-time goal to beat Flamengo and helped his side lift the third title under Jurgen Klopp.
4. Premier League (2019/20)
The fans were already in love with the German tactician after he won the three European trophies but Klopp then did something historic for his side. 30 years of wait was finally over when Liverpool went on to lift the 2019/20 Premier League title. The Reds dominated the season, finishing 18 points clear of Manchester City and accumulating an astonishing 99 points from 38 league games.
5. Carabao Cup (2021/22)
Liverpool won the Carabao Cup in the 2021-22 season under Jurgen Klopp after they beat Chelsea in penalty shootouts. The match saw no goals in the initial 90 minutes or the additional 30 minutes of extra time and went to a penalty shoot-out; each of the first 21 kicks in the shoot-out was scored before Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga missed his to give Liverpool an 11-10 victory and a record ninth EFL Cup title.
6. FA Cup (2021/22)
Chelsea and Liverpool were the finalists, the same as in the 2022 EFL Cup Final earlier in the season. This was the first time that the same pair of teams met in both the EFL Cup Final and the FA Cup Final of the same season since Arsenal and Sheffield Wednesday in 1993.
Liverpool won the title on penalties after the game ended goalless after extra time. Jurgen Klopp became the first German-born manager to win the FA Cup and it was his sixth title with Liverpool in 6 seasons.
7. Community Shield (2022)
Liverpool won the Community Shield ahead of the 2022/23 Premier League season. The Reds faced 2021/22 Premier League champions Man City and thrashed them 3-1 to win the title.
8. Carabao Cup (2023/24)
Chelsea and Liverpool played a repeat of the 2022 final at the Wembley Stadium in London. Liverpool won the match 1–0 in the extra time to secure a record tenth EFL Cup title.

Heartbreaks for the Reds under Jurgen Klopp
2016 EFL Cup Final: In the 2015-16 Cup Final between Man City and Liverpool, Fernandinho put City in front early in the second half before Philippe Coutinho leveled seven minutes from time. In the shootout, Liverpool scored first and Fernandinho missed but that advantage was soon overturned as City goalkeeper Willy Caballero saved three in a row for Manuel Pellegrini’s side to lift the trophy.
2015/16 Europa League Final: Liverpool faced Sevilla in the final and lost 3-1. The Reds took the lead in the 35th minute when striker Daniel Sturridge scored. However, they conceded within the first minute of the second half through Sevilla striker Kevin Gameiro. Sevilla took the lead in the 64th minute when captain Coke scored. They extended their lead six minutes later when Coke completed his brace of the match. Liverpool were unable to make a comeback and Sevilla won the competition for the fifth time, and third in succession.
2018-19 and 2021-22 Premier League title: The Reds lost the 2018-19 and the 2021-22 Premier League titles to Pep Guardiola's Man City by just one point. Jurgen Klopp's side managed to accumulate 97 points in the 2018-19 season but Man City won the title with 98 points in 38 league games. In the 2021-22 season, Liverpool were once again going toe to toe with City but City won the title on the last day with 93 points. The Reds (92 points) won their last league game but City also registered a comeback victory against Aston Villa to lift the title.
2019 Community Shield: It was indeed a pre-season game but Man City once again emerged victorious against the Reds. Raheem Sterling scored in the 12th minute to put City in front but Joel Matip equalised in the 77th minute and the game went to penalties. Liverpool missed one but City didn't as they won 5-4. Georginio Wijnaldum missed the spot-kick for Liverpool.
2019 Community Shield: A similar game to the year before but with different opponents. The Gunners took the lead with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scoring but Takumi Minamino levelled on 73 minutes. Rhian Brewster hit the crossbar but Arsenal converted all five of their attempts to win the shield.
2017-18 Champions League Final: Liverpool met the Los Blancos in the final at Kyiv. Karim Benzema scored early in the second half from a mistake of Liverpool's shot-stopper to provide his side with the lead but Sadio Mane made it 1-1 just after four minutes. Gareth Bale came in as a substitute and changed the game completely. He scored a brilliant overhead kick and then extended Real Madrid's lead by three to secure the title. Jurgen Klopp's side left in tears as this was their second European Final loss in three years.
2021-22 Champions League Final: Real Madrid won the 2021-22 title by 1–0 via a 59th-minute goal from Vinícius Júnior from Federico Valverde's assist for a record-extending 14th title, and their fifth in nine years. The Reds were dominating the game but the Real Madrid and Belgium shot-stopper, Courtois was in the form of his life. He saved his side from every possible threat and as a result, Jurgen Klopp's side lost to the Los Blancos for the second time in the UCL final in four years.
Jurgen Klopp will leave Liverpool at the end of the season with a legendary status after rebuilding the club with a limited budget and helping the side regain their status in England and Europe alongside building a beautiful bond with the city and its people.
On Klopp's first day in charge at Anfield in October 2015 he declared himself as "a normal one", in contrast to Jose Mourinho's bombastic "special one" arrival as Chelsea manager a decade earlier.
Still, Klopp went on to achieve extraordinary feats as the only Liverpool manager to complete the clean sweep of winning the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup, League Cup, Club World Cup, and Community Shield.
