Jurgen Klopp pays Kenny Dalglish tribute as Liverpool boss tells story of Kop icon

With a few notable exceptions, it's probably fair to say that most football fans have a lot of time for Jurgen Klopp.

The German is engaging, charismatic and capable of being funny, meaning even those with no love for Liverpool have a soft spot for their manager.

If you are a Reds fan you probably worship the ground the man walks on, and would love nothing more than to have him read you a bedtime story in his soft, Teutonic tones.

If you are one of those people then you're in luck, as Klopp has done just that - and the story is about Sir Kenny Dalglish.

The legendary former Scotland and Celtic forward has been immortalised in a new children's book, and who better than the current Anfield boss to read it?

Liverpool have posted a video of their manager reading the rhyming story, with a 'Champions of Europe' shirt in the background.

Did we expect lockdown to develop into Jurgen Klopp reading bedtime stories? No, we did not. The result though is absolutely delightful, and you can watch it in the player above.
