Jurgen Klopp hopes 'cool' Kiwis visit can help Liverpool reach next level

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp says he was happy to take some tips from the touring New Zealand rugby league team.


The Kiwis took in a visit to Liverpool’s training facility at Melwood, where they trained and ate alongside the Premier League footballers, as part of their preparations for Sunday’s second Test against England at Anfield.

“It was great,” Klopp said. “They are a bunch of real sports guys, I think it’s the third time now that we’ve had the opportunity to host them.
“It’s really cool. They had a good session, I hope. They are always welcome.
“We’re a very open-minded club, we’re open to learn from different sports.
