Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp speaks out on 'bull****' rumours linking him to Juventus

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has dismissed as “bull****” the rumours linking him with the vacant manager's job at Juventus.

Reports in Italy suggested that the Serie A champions were trying to secure the services of Klopp, whose current deal with the Reds runs until 2022.

However, the German coach, who is preparing to lead Liverpool into a second successive Champions League final on Saturday night, insists there is no chance of him walking away from Anfield this summer.

“Of course it's a league that I like, it's really exciting but all these rumours I hear about Juventus are bull****,” Klopp told Sky Italia.

“There is nothing true about it. I am not going to leave Liverpool. I know Serie A very well, I follow it and I like it, but I am going to stay at Liverpool.”

Klopp will be gunning to end a run of six straight final defeats in his managerial career when Liverpool lock horns with Tottenham in Madrid.

"Every final is special and I always prepare it in the same way I did in the past,” Klopp added.

“If I had won those finals I'd be happier but the preparation was the same. This Liverpool side is the best team I ever brought to a final.

“Tottenham are a very solid team but we must win. It could be the best moment in my career if we win the title, but only if we win."
