I've decided to leave the club once this season concludes. I understand this might come as a shock to many, but let me explain - he said. - I adore every aspect of this club, it's just that I'm running low on energy. I'm holding up well right now, but I realize I won't be able to keep this up - he added.

Jurgen Klopp has been steering Liverpool FC since the 2015/16 season. Under his guidance, the club bagged several titles, including the English Championship and the Champions League. "The Reds'" last match at Anfield Road under Klopp is slated for May 19th.

Klopp's last match in Liverpool: Here's how much the tickets cost

Liverpool fans have the opportunity to sit just behind Jurgen Klopp during his final match at Anfield, but it'll set them back as much as $32,000.

Tickets for Klopp's poignant farewell are already fetching $23,000 on one of the ticket sales sites. After adding VAT and service charges, the overall price balloons to $31,112.

The seats in question are located in block L5, facing the main grandstand at Anfield. While they rank among the best spots in the league, Liverpool sells them at a mere $76. This indicates that the resale site will make a whopping 40,700% profit.
