Jurgen Klopp - the Liverpool manager is not hiding his Christian faith
Liverpool FC, one of the biggest football clubs in the world has unveiled German Jurgen Klopp as their new manager.
He is a popular figure in Germany because of his outspoken nature and the success he brought to former club Borussia Dortmund, where he won two league titles and got to the final of the European Champions League.
Car brand Opel has also credited him with turning around its fortunes in the country, saying his role as ambassador helped boost sales of its Insignia model by 35% in 2014.
