Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp wants his side to focus on the Wolves finale and not be distracted by the Champions League. The Reds head into the final match of a campaign in which they have lost just once – to Manchester City – and are just one point behind Pep Guardiola’s defending champions.
Liverpool need to beat Wolves and hope Brighton can take points off City if they are to win their first title since 1990. The Reds do have the Champions League final against Tottenham in Madrid on June 1 to look forward to but Klopp insists their focus is only on Anfield on Sunday. “You get millions of messages and nobody speaks about the weekend. It’s all ‘Unbelievable!’ and ‘All the best in the final’ but we play Wolves now.”

“It doesn’t make Tuesday night’s achievement any smaller. It was for sure one of the best moments in football history, not only Liverpool. But it has nothing to do with the weekend – except that we should be confident. “Wolves want to show that they are not passengers, they are a real football team. I (Klopp) respect that, and we have to be ready.
“They are seventh in an unbelievably competitive league, from getting promoted last year. “Wolves showed the whole year they have ambitions and can enjoy their football. “They played wonderful football, good defending, sensational counter-attacking, scoring in the right moments, staying calm and composed. “Nuno is doing an incredible job there, which makes our job pretty difficult. “And on the other side, Brighton. It’s their last home game of the season, and I know this team are full of joyful footballers. They will try everything.” Klopp said.
