Manager Jurgen Klopp is believed to have invited all of Liverpool’s players and staff to a party at his home in Mallorca if Man City are stripped of the title.
The verdict in the Premier League’s case against Man City, which involves 130 financial charges, is expected to be announced in the near future.
The outcome of the hearing into financial irregularities between 2009/10 and 2017/18 is not yet known, but if found guilty, the Manchester club could face significant points deductions or be suspended for the period. They could face severe penalties, including being stripped of their titles. Violate.
So, technically Liverpool could win the title in 2013/14, but further research suggests that the Reds could also win the title in 2018/19 and 2021/22, when they finished second behind Man City. There is a possibility that it will be targeted.
If that happens, Klopp revealed on Tuesday that he would host a grand celebration for all his former players and staff at his villa in Mallorca.
“Should[Manchester City]be punished?’ I won’t say anything about that,” he told reporters at a press conference to mark the start of his job as Red Bull’s global head of football.
“But if you will, we had this discussion when we left.
“I don’t come to Mallorca very often at the moment, but if I did, I told all the winners to book me a flight and I’ll buy them a beer.
“Whatever we have to celebrate, we’re going to do it. Weather permitting, we could have our own parade in my backyard!”
Clearly Klopp understood in real time how his words would be interpreted and continued:
“Let’s wait and see. There was no compliance at all. I’m really surprised that (the verdict) is that close. Two months, wow, let’s see.”
Assuming that Klopp wins the title twice, in 2018/19 and 2021/22, there will be a total of 30 players who can claim at least one Premier League winners’ medal.
14 of them won both awards, with nine others including Harvey Elliott, Ibrahima Konate, Luis Dias, Kostas Tsimikas, Thiago, Diogo Jota, Daniel Sturridge, Caouhin Kelleher and Simon Mignolet. This will be the first Premier League victory for Liverpool. .
The hearing into Man City’s 130 charges concluded in December, but given the possibility of an appeal, a final verdict is unlikely to be handed down until the start of next season.
Klopp and his players may have to put their party plans on hold even if they win the title this year.
