Klopp, on the new World Cup: “Only money matters”

Jurgen Klopp, Liverpool manager, criticized the initiative to play the World Cup every two years and assured that only money matters and not the health of the players.“There is no other sport in the world with such a busy schedule. There are sports that are more physically demanding, such as athletics and marathons, but they do not run 20, 30 or 40 races a year. We all know what is happening, they say. more opportunities to different countries, but in the end the only thing that matters is money“, Klopp said at a press conference.

“Someone has to realize that without the players, who are the most important part of this, we cannot play. Nobody is more important than the players“he added.

“Imagine there was a World Cup and a European Championship every two years. That means that the players would have to play a big tournament every year. They would only have three weeks off each year. All the new ideas that have appeared in recent years have tried to add more matches. That's not good in the long run. “

In addition, Klopp also complained that South America playoffs They were played at dawn this Friday, with Premier League matches starting on Saturday morning. “They don't care, they just don't care. There is only one main interest and the rest does not matter. There has to be a point where all the confederations sit together and start thinking about sport and not just profit.but I don't think I'll be alive when that happens. “
