Liverpool will lift the Premier League trophy today.

 

 

The Reds are the earliest crowned Premier League club after seven games left to play following Manchester City’s loss to Chelsea on Thursday, June 25, 2020.

Liverpool’s name has officially been engraved on the PL trophy and will have the chance to receive the accolade after their game against Chelsea.

 

 

It is Klopp’s fourth trophy in his five years as manager of the English club, having won the Champions League, Super Cup, and Club World Cup.  

Liverpool have drawn and lost three games in the League mounting a 15-point lead on the table with a game in hand against the Blues.

The presentation will be done at the Kop end of the pitch behind closed doors as a result of the coronavirus outbreak. The manager in his program notes have acknowledged the support of fans through the 30-year wait and has pleaded that they stay home and celebrate with the squad.

 “Our supporters too, although absent since the season restarted, remain the wind in our sails. It is impossible to sum up their impact or their importance,” the manager wrote.

“They are the reason that representing this club brings the greatest possible emotional attachment and therefore emotional reward.

 

 

“What we do here we do together. At times that has meant suffering together. But right now – and in the last 14 months – it has meant celebrating together. I love this.

“It would not mean as much were it not for our supporters. They might not be in Anfield tonight in person but their spirit can be felt and we lift this trophy for them.

 

 

“It has been their wait, their anguish, their dreams. I hope wherever in our city, region, the country or the world they watch from, they realize it is they that make LFC the club with the biggest heart and the most joyful soul in world sport.”
