Jose Mourinho believes a third Champions League final defeat would be “really hard” for Jurgen Klopp.
Next week’s all-English final between Liverpool and Tottenham is “surrounded by huge pressure”, says two-time winner Mourinho – not least for Klopp.
The Liverpool manager experienced Champions League final defeat for the second time in his career when the Reds lost to Real Madrid last June, five years after his Borussia Dortmund side suffered the same fate against rivals Bayern Munich.
Klopp has lost six of his seven finals as a manager in all competitions.
“If Jurgen wins it’s an incredible achievement for him,” Mourinho told Sky Sports News, in his first UK broadcast interview since he was sacked by Manchester United.
“If Jurgen doesn’t win, you know….to lose three Champions League finals…phew…that has to be really, really hard.
“But he is a very positive guy, I’m sure he’s just thinking about winning.
“Being a manager, and understanding what it means for a manager to play a Champions League final, there is always a negative side of it and the negative side is that one team will lose and one manager will lose.”
