Jurgen Klopp to Return to Liverpool

Klopp To Return to Anfield

The management team for this year's LFC Foundation Legends charity match has now been confirmed, with Jurgen Klopp, the Foundation's honorary ambassador, returning to the Anfield dugout to assist manager Sir Kenny Dalglish.

LFC Legends will face Borussia Dortmund (BVB) Legends on Saturday 28 March 2026, with the fixture presented by official training partner AXA and in association with the club's official former players association, Forever Reds.

Sir Kenny and Jurgen will be joined on the sidelines by LFC official ambassador and all-time record goal scorer Ian Rush, and Forever Reds Chair John Aldridge.

A long-time supporter of LFC Foundation, Klopp has consistently praised the impact of the charity. He has highlighted its "incredible work" delivered both locally and globally.

Klopp also has strong links to Borussia Dortmund, having managed the side between 2008 and 2015.

The two clubs are united by more than just their former manager, with both sets of supporters singing the "You'll Never Walk Alone" anthem before matches. They will come together for the Legends clash at Anfield ten years on from their dramatic Europa League quarter-final meeting in 2016.

As always, one hundred percent on the proceeds from the Legends fixture will go directly towards the work of LFC Foundation and Forever Reds.

This year, funds raised will support LFC Foundation's employability programmes, helping people across the community to find work, gain qualifications and develop new skills through mentoring and training. The match will also contribute to the Foundation's long-term ambition of supporting 500,000 people a season by 2030.
