Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp was named Coach of the Year.
Reflecting on his side’s success in an interview with the BBC, Klopp said:
“My team deserve this because they did an incredible job. It’s a mix of talent, character, desire and the power of the club, which is a big one. That all comes together and it was a great moment when we became champions.
“We want to organise a big party when it’s allowed again, could take a little while but until then maybe we can win something else, we will see. We can’t wait to see the fans again and winning this prize in Manchester is even sweeter.”
After all, Premier League champions Liverpool were crowned Team of the Year at the BBC’s Sports Personality of the Year awards.
Meanwhile, Lewis Hamilton finished runner-up to Formula 1 superstar Jordan Henderson for the key award of the evening.
