When the Golden Shoe was awarded, Jürgen Klopp had a humorous message to ex-protégé Robert Lewandowski.
When Robert Lewandowski (33) was awarded the Golden Shoe for Europe’s best striker, coach Jürgen Klopp was surprised that his former striker had never won this trophy before.
“When I heard you won the Golden Shoe, I thought: How? Only now?” Said Klopp in a video message.
Jürgen Klopp praises Lewandowski – together two championship titles
He added: “You can see how much time it takes to get very, very, right to the top. You’ve been at the top for a long time anyway, but you’ve also underlined that by saying that you won this extraordinary award. “
Lewandowski scored his first Bundesliga goal for Borussia Dortmund under coach Klopp in 2010. They then won two championship titles together before the striker moved to Bayern Munich.
There he won the top scorer five times, with 41 goals last season. Klopp has been coaching Liverpool FC since 2015.
