“Thank You for Keeping Him” – Jurgen Klopp’s Wife Ulla Moves Liverpool Supporters to Tears During Emotional Farewell, Fans React

Liverpool fans will have to move on from their golden era in recent times. Jurgen Klopp, the club’s most successful manager after the inception of the Premier League has bid adieu to the club against Wolverhampton Wanderers today. And with the fans already getting expressive during the game, his wife Ulla Sandrock stirred a lot more emotions from them on social media.

The German manager won them their maiden Premier League title in the 2019-2020 season apart from 12 other titles including the UEFA Champions League and the Club World Cup. But Klopp had finally found it enough and announced in January that his departure was certain after the season much to the fans’ disappointment.

However, as long as it lasted, much of the credit goes to Sandrock who played a vital role in him not just joining and remaining at Anfield but also snubbing rivals Manchester United as the replacement for Sir Alex Ferguson. Hence, during today’s farewell for Jurgen Klopp, things got very reflective when Sandroick was seen singing ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone,’ holding a Liverpool scarf.

Meanwhile, in 2022 citing the reason for his contract renewal, the departing Liverpool boss stated, “Why? Is now the question. Because Ulla wants to stay and as a good husband what are you doing when your wife wants to stay? You are staying,” recognizing his wife’s role.

However, this time she was fine with the former Borussia Dortmund coach leaving as he had a valid reason citing his well-being. Nevertheless, the bond between Liverpool and Klopp cannot be broken so easily despite his choosing to move on. Hence the fans took the opportunity to acknowledge him and his wife’s contribution.

Liverpool fans express heartfelt messages to Jurgen Klopp’s wife Ulla Sandrock’s gesture

The club’s anthem in memory of the Hillsborough disaster was played at Anfield today for Klopp, leading the fans to drop some touching messages on X (previously Twitter). The fan page itself posted another message thanking her for influencing the coach to extend the contract in 2022, “Klopp and Ulla ❤️. Thank you for keeping him here one more year, Ulla.”  

This user echoed the voice of the previous fan and was glad that Jurgen Klopp did not leave early.

Another fan thought that Klopp’s first lady needed more recognition for what she did for the club.

This netizen reminded fans about her pride in being part of the club’s heritage. Ulla apart from her constant support to the club was also involved in charities during the COVID-19 lockdown while living in Formby, Liverpool.

However, this user feels that she is already a queen for the fans.

Not able to get over the Klopp pair, this fanatic went to give major credit to Mrs. Klopp for her standing with the manager. Klopp also led Borussia Dortmund to two titles in 2010 and 2011 making him a triumphant manager in Europe.

On the whole, after 8 and half years at Liverpool, Jurgen Klopp will be etched not just in the club’s history books but also in the hearts of every fan who dreamt of winning a Premier League title after 1992. His arrival, along with Ulla by his side who turned out to be a blessing, ushered in a new era for the Reds. With the managerial baton passed to Arne Slot, the club hopes to replicate that success.
