The unveiling of a mural honoring Jurgen Klopp in Liverpool has angered some supporters.
The Reds manager announced in January that, following a successful nine years in charge, he will leave the team at the end of the current campaign.
In his most recent piece of art, Klopp is seen smiling. As a result of leading Liverpool to victories in both domestic and European leagues, Klopp has gained notoriety as a club icon.
However, a new mural that features Klopp was unveiled, so even if he leaves Liverpool, people will still remember him.
It features the lоgо оf the brewery and a glass оf Erdinger, a German bееr, and is situated оn the side оf a building оn Slater Street.
Nevertheless, it didn’t seem like a good update to fans on social media; one on X commented, “It’s so annoying that these are all adverts now.”Trent Alexander-Arnold Mural with Fans in Support of Foodbanks Unveiled by TAW

He went on, “Whatever real mural culture there was is getting completely absorbed by the brands.”
“Yeah,” a third person said. Honestly, this is garbage. Why a brand needs to be involved is unclear.
A fourth said, “Not a fan, just looks like a big advert,” referring to the piece of art created by local creator John Culshaw.
As an ambassador for Erdinger since 2019, Klopp—who once had a mural near Anfield—screamed, “Never skim an Erdinger!” in a television commercial.Erdinger and Klopp have collaborated for over four years.
In 2020, after Liverpool won the Premier League, the brewery produced limited-edition cans with his signature and image.
Owner of Peterborough United Darragh MacAnthony thinks Ipswich Town’s manager Kieran McKenna ought to succeed Jurgen Klopp as manager of Liverpool.
With Klopp going for a triple in his last weeks with the team, Erdinger might be getting ready to try something similar at the end of the season.
Liverpool is currently leading the Premier League, ahead of Manchester City and Arsenal, and has already won the Carabao Cup.
Additionally, they are in the quarterfinals of the Europa League, and the Reds might be on their way to a historic final season under Klopp.
