Ryan Gravenberch attributes his regained sense of assurance at Liverpool to the influence and guidance of Jurgen Klopp.

Ryan Gravenberch, the Dutch midfielder for Liverpool, attributes his restored confidence and renewed enjoyment of football to the guidance of manager Jurgen Klopp since joining the club in the summer. Gravenberch, who faced challenges during his previous season with Bayern Munich, has already made a notable impact at Anfield, starting in nine matches and scoring two goals in the UEFA Europa League.

During an exclusive interview with TNT Sports, Gravenberch expressed his admiration for Klopp, depicting their relationship as affectionate and akin to a close-knit family. Gravenberch conveyed his appreciation for the manager’s trust in him and the opportunity to play on the field. He credited Klopp’s counsel to rediscover enjoyment in the game as a pivotal factor in his comeback.

When questioned about the primary source of regaining confidence, Gravenberch recognized the significance of performing well, but emphasized the pivotal role of receiving sufficient playing time and demonstrating his skills in rebuilding his self-assurance.

Gravenberch gained recognition at Ajax, where he entered the senior team at 16 years old and achieved three Eredivisie titles.
