Jurgen Klopp is now Liverpool's new manager after agreeing to take over, according to Sky Deutschland.

The German has agreed a contract with the Reds and succeeds Brendan Rodgers in the hot seat at Anfield.




Liverpool will hold a press conference tomorrow, during which they will present Klopp as the club's new manager.

The 48-year-old German tactician left his post as Borussia Dortmund coach at the end of last season and has quickly bounced back into management.
 


Rodgers was shown the door by Liverpool on Sunday following the Reds' 1-1 draw away against rivals Everton.

Klopp's contract at Anfield is expected to be a three-year deal, keeping him at the club until 2018.

The German will set about trying to take Liverpool back into the Premier League's top four, after the Reds could only manage a finish of sixth last season.

For Liverpool, securing Klopp's services is a coup as the German was one of the most sought-after managers in European football.
