Jurgen Klopp will earn £7 million a year at Liverpool — if he delivers on his promise to take them back to the top.
The German coach has signed a three-year contract to manage the Reds, which, with bonuses, would put him just behind Jose Mourinho and Arsene Wenger in the list of the highest-paid managers in British football.
He has told his new American employers that he believes he can deliver on the target of a top four finish this season. And if he returns the club to the summit of the game, then his bonus-based salary would reflect that.
Former Borussia Dortmund boss Klopp, who has two Bundesliga titles and a Champions’ League final on his CV, touched down at Liverpool John Lennon airport just after 5pm on Thursday aboard a private plane that stopped on the apron of the runway well away from the assembled media’s camera lenses.
