Jürgen Klopp is making a highly anticipated return to Liverpool next month as a guest speaker at the LFC Foundation gala dinner (The Athletic).
The event will take place on Friday, May 23, at the iconic Liverpool Cathedral. This marks a special occasion for Klopp, as it comes just two days before Liverpool are expected to lift the Premier League trophy at Anfield, when they face Crystal Palace on May 25.
Klopp’s presence at this event is sure to be a moment of nostalgia for many fans, as his impact on the club is still deeply felt.
The German manager spent eight-and-a-half unforgettable years with Liverpool, transforming the club into one of the most successful teams in Europe.
Under Klopp’s leadership, Liverpool won every major trophy available, including the Champions League, Premier League, FIFA Club World Cup, and UEFA Super Cup.
His time on Merseyside will be remembered for the thrilling attacking football, iconic victories, and his infectious passion for the club.

Klopp may return for the final Liverpool game
Klopp ended his memorable tenure with Liverpool in the summer, departing after a historic spell that reshaped the club’s fortunes.
He left behind a legacy of success, having guided Liverpool to their 19th league title during the 2019/20 season, despite the celebrations being overshadowed by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Since then, Klopp has taken on a new role as the head of global soccer at Red Bull, yet his connection with Liverpool remains strong.
Although Klopp has been invited to attend the final game of the season, it is still unclear whether he will make the trip to Anfield.
However, Klopp has already confirmed that he plans to take part in Liverpool’s title celebrations if they secure their 20th league title this season. Despite this, he won’t be attending the team’s open-top bus parade on May 27.
With just 11 more points needed from their final seven games, Klopp and the Liverpool faithful could soon have another reason to celebrate, starting with their upcoming match against West Ham.
Klopp’s return to Liverpool, even in this guest capacity, is a reminder of the immense achievements and unforgettable moments he delivered during his time as manager.
