Manchester City’s Ilkay Gundogan has revealed that Jurgen Klopp was one of the first to text him after the German scored the goal to win City the Premier League title.

The midfielder was the key figure in turning Man City’s fortunes around on Sunday as his side found themselves 2-0 down to Aston Villa and on the brink of letting the league title slip away.

The German scored two goals in the 3-2 win and ended Jurgen Klopp’s dream of becoming the first manager to guide an English side to a quadruple. The pair worked together at Borussia Dortmund before coming to England and the 31-year-old has since revealed that his former boss was one of the first to text him after the dramatic conclusion to the Premier League season.
