Jurgen Klopp says Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola is the best manager in the world

He acknowledged that City are facing 115 charges of financial irregularity saying he did not know the details but stated that no other manager could've achieved what the Spainiard did at the club.

Klopp, who has had numerous titanic battles with Guardiola in recent years, hailed the Spaniard in a recent interview, saying (via City Xtra):

"Everybody knows about the 115 charges [at #ManCity), but I have no clue what that means. I only know the number. No matter what has transpired at @ManCity, Pep Guardiola is the best manager in the world - and that is truly significant..."

The German manager added:

"Put any other manager in #ManCity, they don't win the #PL four times in a row. That's down to him [Pep Guardiola) and his teain Does that mean they can do whatever they want? No. But I don't know what they did - if anything - and I'm not here to say they have..."

"We'll see. Of course, I'd like to know [if #ManCity are guilty] one day. Everyone wants to know. But I'll be somewhere else. The quality of Pep makes the difference so I don't worry about these things. It's not my problem.." Klopp concluded.

Jürgen Klopp joined Liverpool in 2015 and led the Reds to their first Premier League title in 30 years in the 2019–20 season. He also won them their first FA Cup since 2006 in the 2021–22 campaign.
