Liverpool boss Klopp hits back at Neville criticism over Super League plans

Jurgen Klopp has struck back at criticism from Gary Neville over Liverpool's participation in the Super League, saying the former Manchester United defender has followed the money his entire career.

The Reds were one of 12 clubs to sign up to the Super League, and they were the first of those teams to take to the pitch following the announcement late on Sunday, drawing 1-1 with Leeds on Monday.

Klopp also called for his Liverpool players not to be targeted over the club’s decision to join the breakaway Super League.
