Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp questions whether Brexit was the right choice for the UK.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has revealed that he is sceptical about whether Brexit is the right move for the UK.

During an interview with The Telegraph, the German coach argued that Britain should have remained in the EU to help Europe resolve its issues from within.

"If I have a problem in a family, if I have a problem somewhere, then I stay in the family, stay in the club and sort the problem," said Klopp.

"There were hard times in the last two years in the EU with Greece, countries in southern Europe really struggling financially, then refugees because of the crisis in Syria. But that's a problem for all people. Let's sort it together."

The former Borussia Dortmund coach also drew parallels between EU membership and being part of a football club.

"You can't have all the benefits of being part of a team and then behave like a star," he added.

Klopp's Liverpool are in Premier League action this weekend when they take on Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.
