AGF midfielder Amini lifts lid on working with Liverpool boss Klopp

AGF midfielder Mustapha Amini has recalled working with Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp at Borussia Dortmund.

The Australia international never managed an appearance for BVB, but says he always was well treated by Klopp.

He told Goal: "The first time I met him was in the locker room. I remember he shook my hand as if we were best friends. I've never seen a coach do that. Usually they are serious and distant. He always gave hugs to the players.

"One day he asked me if I could come into his office. We sat there for an hour talking about football and life. For a coach of an international nature, it was unusual, but it shows who he is."
