Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has said that the world would not watch the James Bond movies if he became the protagonist, as quoted in Goal.
Klopp made the comments while discussing what James Bond actor Daniel Craig said about him this week.
Hollywood star Craig has raved about the Liverpool boss on Sky Sports, saying that he worships him.
Liverpool manager Klopp – who earns £131,000 per week as salary, according to El Nacional – is pleased to hear the comments from Craig, but he does not think that the world would want him as James Bond.
Goal quotes Klopp as saying: “Thank you for having these nice words, but I would be a very bad James Bond!
“If I walked out of the water in swim shorts I think that would be the moment the whole world would switch off!
“No problem, we all have our jobs to do in life. He has to save the world and I have to help Liverpool from time to time.”
Klopp is a very humble man.
