Jurgen Klopp, the manager of Liverpool, openly shared that Jarrod Bowen from West Ham United holds a special place as his ‘favorite player’ outside of his own Reds team. Klopp made this revelation just before Liverpool’s 5-1 triumph over West Ham United in the Carabao Cup quarter-final on Wednesday night.
Previously, Bowen had been linked as a potential replacement for Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah a few months back. Despite this, the 26-year-old continued to showcase impressive form for West Ham United, netting the lone goal against Liverpool in a recent match.
During an interview with Sky Sports, Klopp remarked, “In quarter-finals, everybody can smell the chance to go through”.
“Playing without [Michail] Antonio, and Bowen steps up in that position – probably my favorite player besides my players.
“It’s just great what he’s doing and how he develops.”
