Lucas Leiva left Liverpool in 2017 convinced the club was on course for success under Jürgen Klopp.
Brazil midfielder Lucas had been with the Reds for more than eight years when – on October 8, 2015 – Klopp was officially announced as the new manager.
The pair subsequently worked together for almost two seasons as the boss initially guided the team to two major cup finals and then Champions League qualification.
Lucas set off on a fresh personal challenge with Lazio as Klopp’s revolution gathered pace, but he departed with absolute faith silverware would follow.
