Klopp's house tops the most viewed listing on Rightmove
The Guardian
|November 29, 2024
A home fit for football royalty and a Grade-I listed abbey are among this year's most-viewed properties on the listing website Rightmove.
Jürgen Klopp left his job as manager of Liverpool in May, and in October the six-bedroom home he was renting from the Merseyside club was put on the market at an asking price of £4.25m. Since then fans of football and snooping around posh properties have propelled the mansion in Freshfield, Formby, to the top of Rightmove's list, swapping scrutiny of his back four for a nose at his back yard.
The detached house, which was previously owned by both Steven Gerrard and Brendan Rodgers, boasts everything the modern football manager could wish for.
