Liverpool coach Jürgen Klopp actually doesn’t like the cameramen who follow him wherever he goes on the sidelines. But this one now has a very special place in the star trainer’s heart.
Because Liverpool’s victory against Newcastle United on Monday evening could have quickly caused frustration for Klopp after the celebrations: In the joy of his club’s 4-2 victory in the Premier League, the German coach lost his wedding ring on Monday evening.

After the final whistle, Klopp congratulated his players on the pitch and then went to the fans to applaud. Video footage shows Klopp abruptly stopping his celebration in the middle of the pitch and stopping on the grass to search the green for something. What is not clear at first. Then he speaks to a folder and asks him for help. A few seconds later the cameraman releases him, he has him!
Klopp reacted with relief to the quick discovery of his wedding ring that had slipped off his finger in front of the Sky Sports TV camera – and kissed the piece of jewelry. “I had a huge shock. But he’s back,” said the 56-year-old, calling the cameraman “a friend for life.”

And further: “Oh my God, that would have been really terrible,” said Klopp. “I lost him once in my life – I needed a professional diver because it was in the sea,” Klopp reported. “I have been grateful to the man all my life,” said Klopp. “Every now and then, when I lose a kilo or two, it no longer fits.”
