Herzeler has emerged as the youngest manager in English football and is the only German left in the league after Klopp left Anfield. Leading to comparisons that the 31-year-old will be the charismatic successor to ‘JK’. UFABET 

Of course, the ‘Seagulls’ boss doesn’t seek to pressure himself. Saying that he is still young and lacks charisma to measure up to Klopp’s footsteps. 

“When I worked in England I was immediately compared to Jurgen Klopp. We both had different roles and he was a successful manager who had his own style throughout his career.” he told Sport Bild.

“For me, Jurgen is the best coach in terms of creating an identity for the club and all the employees.” 

“He explained to me the things he consistently does and the decisions he makes in difficult situations. It was an eye-opener.”
