Jürgen Klopp spent seven years as a BVB coach in Dortmund. Now he returns to the city with his Liverpool FC. The Champions League match against FC Midtjylland must be postponed due to the threat of quarantine. For Klopp it could be anything in Dortmund.
Jürgen Klopp returns to Dortmund for a Champions League match with Liverpool FC. The English premier class match on 9 December against Danish representative FC Midtjylland will be moved to Klopp’s former workplace. “It is true that Dortmund was chosen as the venue on December 9. The match will be played without public participation,” confirmed a spokesman for the city of Dortmund.
The background of the relocation is a regulation under which Danes traveling to Britain should initially be quarantined for 14 days. Likewise, Klopp and Co. are expected to be quarantined upon returning from Denmark. In the period under review, the Reds calendar includes three league games – postponement excluded. Provided it follows the hygiene concept approved in Dortmund, the city has accepted the wishes of the European football union (Uefa) and Liverpool. “In this context, the city of Dortmund currently sees no obstacles for this match to be held in Dortmund,” he said.
According to WDR, Klopp’s wish was to move to Dortmund. He was coach at BVB between 2008 and 2015. The manager is threatened with a group final at his old home with his Liverpool FC. Liverpool lead the group nine points clear of Atalanta and Ajax Amsterdam (both seven). One point against the Dutch on Tuesday (21:00 in the live ticker of ntv.de) it would be enough for a place in the second round. If so, Klopp could fully enjoy the return to Dortmund.
