Liverpool have shared a video of Jurgen Klopp and members of his squad thanking healthcare workers in Great Britain and around the world for their efforts during the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
People in Britain showed their appreciation for NHS staff on Thursday evening by taking to their windows, doorsteps and balconies to clap those involved in the attempt to save lives and prevent the spread of Covid-19.
In Liverpool’s video, players and staff from the men’s and women’s teams share their messages of gratitude, with Klopp saying: “Myself, the staff and all the players of LFC would like to take this opportunity to deliver a message to say thank you to all the incredible people who work in the health services and all the health workers out there.
“It’s unbelievable what you are doing, and on behalf on all of us from LFC, I would like to say thank you, or how we would say in Germany: Vielen Dank.”
Brazil international Roberto Firmino, speaking in his native tongue, added: “For the work you do, we are very grateful.” Forward partner Mohamed Salah said: “Thank you so much for helping us. We really appreciate your efforts.”
Liverpool men’s captain Jordan Henderson was also involved, saying: “You are heroes, thank you.”
Defender Trent Alexander-Arnold added: “Thank you for being the world’s heroes when we needed you the most.”
Liverpool Women’s manager Vicky Jepson also contributed. “To all the doctors, the nurses, the cleaners and the porters – everybody here at LFCW are extremely grateful for all the hard work that you put in,” she said.
