Klopp on Melwood farewell: 'I will miss it, but Kirkby will be great'
Jürgen Klopp acknowledged feeling mixed emotions as Liverpool prepare to bid farewell to Melwood this weekend ahead of the move to the brand new AXA Training Centre.
The Reds will train as a squad for one final time at the West Derby complex on Saturday. They will return to a new state-of-the-art facility in Kirkby when sessions resume following the international break.
Klopp told Liverpoolfc.com: “Mixed emotions, really mixed emotions. I am happy about going to Kirkby and very sad about leaving Melwood, to be honest.
“So, it’s strange; I didn’t think properly about it so far, but my PA is obviously already moving all my stuff out of my office so I realised step-by-step that the place already looks different.
“I will miss it, but that’s how it should be. Melwood was really good, it was important – an important place in my life, so I will miss it.
“But Kirkby will be great.”
