Jurgen Klopp's success as the manager of Liverpool has elevated him to one of the greatest in football history. With this achievement comes a hefty salary, a reflection of his high status in the game. However, after eight-and-a-half years at Anfield, Klopp has announced his departure, leaving the football world in complete shock.
Many are now wondering about the details of Klopp's salary and his net worth. According to The Sun, the 56-year-old earns approximately £15 million a year at Liverpool, making him one of the highest paid managers in the world. His estimated net worth is between £40 million to £50 million. But it's not all about the money for Klopp, as he also donates 1% of his salary to the football charity initiative, 'Common Goal', which he co-founded with former Premier League player Juan Mata.
In addition to his Liverpool income, Klopp has also earned from sponsorship deals with major brands such as Puma, New Balance, and Adidas. He had recently signed a contract extension in April 2022, which would have kept him at Anfield until 2026.
When announcing his departure, Klopp cited his dwindling energy as the main reason for stepping down as Liverpool manager. In January, he explained his decision, saying, "I love absolutely everything about this club...but I am convinced that this is the decision I have to make. I am running out of energy and I know that I cannot continue to do this job repeatedly."
Despite his departure, Klopp will always have a special place in the hearts of Liverpool fans and the city itself. He expressed his love and gratitude for the club, the supporters, and the team, stating that the least he owes them is the truth. And the truth is that he is ready to move on from his role as Liverpool manager.
