Andoni Iraola on why he chose Liverpool despite interest from multiple clubs:
🗣️ “I had many conversations with different clubs, very big clubs, very ambitious projects, all trying to convince me.
But for me, there was one decision that felt different from the beginning.
Liverpool is not just another job in football.
It is a club with identity, history, pressure, and emotion like few others in the world.
It has always been a dream of mine to manage at Anfield, even before I became a manager at this level.
And I have to be honest, one conversation changed everything for me.
I spoke with Jürgen Klopp.
He didn’t try to convince me in a normal way he spoke about the club, the fans, the responsibility, and what it means to lead Liverpool.
He told me: ‘If you ever get the chance, don’t think twice. At Liverpool, you don’t just manage a team… you carry a feeling.’
That stayed with me. After that call, my decision was made.
Other clubs offered projects, money, structure… but Liverpool offered something else. Belief. Expectation. Pressure.
And history that demands you give everything every single day.
I didn’t come here to take part. I came here because this is the club I always dreamed of leading.
And now that I’m here, I understand exactly what Klopp meant.”
