Jurgen Klopp Says He Is 'Not Prepared' For Question About Manchester United's Manager Situation In Press Conference
Published
| Last updated
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp was not prepared to answer a question regarding the current managerial situation at Manchester United during a pre-match press conference.
It was announced on Sunday morning that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer had been relieved of his duties at Old Trafford following a poor run of form that ended with an abysmal 4-1 defeat against Watford.
Since that news emerged, a number of candidates have been linked with one of the biggest jobs in world football, including Zinedine Zidane, Luis Enrique and Paris Saint-Germain manager Mauricio Pochettino.

As you can see in the footage above, the German was asked a lengthy question about the pressures on managing a big club, as well as Pochettino being linked to the United job.
"What do I have to do with PSG or Manchester United?' Klopp replied. "Sorry, I'm really not prepared for that question."
He then added: "I didn't think about Manchester United for a second and I didn't think about what impact the manager has, should have or whatever.
"It's six years since I had to think about these kind of things, sorry. It was a long question and I don't have an answer for that."
