Liverpool F.C. manager Jürgen Klopp writes to Donegal Manchester United supporter and says he won't stop winning games

Ten-year-old Daragh Curley, from Glenswilly, who supports Manchester United, a club from the North West of England that plays in the top football division across the water, pleaded with Mr. Klopp and asked him to sabotage his own club.

Daragh wrote: “Liverpool are winning too many games. If you win nine more games then you have the best unbeaten run in English football. Being a United fan that is very sad.

“So the next time Liverpool play please make them lose. You should just let the other team score. I hope I have convinced you to not win the league or any other match again.”

Liverpool's manager Jürgen Klopp wrote back: “Unfortunately, on this occasion, I cannot grant your request, not through choice anyway. As much as you want Liverpool to lose it is my job to do everything that I can to help Liverpool to win as there are millions of people around the world who want that to happen so I really do not want to let them down.

“Luckily for you, we have lost games in the past and we will lose games in the future because that is football.

“The problem is when you are 10 years old you think that things will always be as they are now but if there is one thing I can tell you as 52 years old it is that this most definitely isn’t the case.”
