Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp laughs off suggestion it was his dream to manage Manchester United: 'People think I am a little bit crazy, but I am not that crazy'

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has laughed off the suggestion it was once his dream to take charge of Manchester United.

The two arch-rivals go head-to-head at Anfield on Saturday and Klopp's former boss at Mainz Eckhard Krautzun this week claimed when he played under him the German's ambition had been to move to Old Trafford.

However, Klopp dismissed the idea that had things turned out differently he would be in the opposition dug-out on Saturday.
