Klopp has looked to clarify himself
“I don’t feel, in this specific case, I don’t feel it at all,” Klopp said.
“I know myself. And you cannot hit me with something which is miles away from my personality. If I was – I cannot remember the word [xenophobic]– like this I would hate it. I would hate myself for being like this.
“I have said a lot of times things that were a little bit open for misunderstanding, I know that. It was not intentionally; just sometimes you say things and you think: ‘Oh my God, it can be interpreted like this!’ But this is not one of these moments.”
