It’s a big part of my life already, and that is all I can say.” open image in gallery Virgil van Dijk has hailed the departing Jurgen Klopp as ‘the whole package’ Although an agreement with Feyenoord was reached over a week ago, Liverpool are in no rush to make an announcement about the appointment as the emotion surrounding Klopp’s departure builds towards a final-day goodbye at home to Wolves. Van Dijk said: “We know other things are decided and Michael Edwards is coming back, Richard Hughes will be the sporting director, they are the only decisions that have been made. So let’s see.” Klopp’s farewell after almost nine years has just two matches remaining and his departure will be tough to take, made all the more difficult by the way their quest for a second title under his leadership disappointingly fizzled out in April to finish the season with only the Carabao Cup.
