Liverpool boss Klopp: Guardiola best manager in the world | OneFootball

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has declared Pep Guardiola the best manager in the world.

Klopp has congratulated Manchester City on an “exceptional" title success.

Manchester United's 2-1 defeat to Leicester on Tuesday night confirmed Guardiola's third Premier League title and City's fifth in the last decade as they succeeded Liverpool as champions.

“A great achievement, congratulations," Klopp said. “I texted Pep last night and Ilkay (Gundogan, a player Klopp managed at Borussia Dortmund).

“It was a very difficult year for the whole world, for football teams as well, and what they achieved so far this year is exceptional.

“Five titles in 10 years – it's always like this when you bring together financial resources and football knowledge, you have a good chance to create something special and that is obviously the case.

“City has an incredible squad and the best manager in the world so that makes it a good recipe."
