Christian Benteke claims a lack of trust from Jurgen Klopp caused his failure to establish himself at Liverpool.
Former Liverpool Player Christain Benteke has said Jurgen Klopp did
not trust enough to lead the line at the club, he believed the reds
manager did not have faith in his abilities during his time at Anfield.
Christain Benteke who joined Liverpool from Aston Villa in club
record fee of £32 million by Brendan Rodgers but the arrival of Jurgen
Klopp to Anfield saw the Belgian slipped down the pecking order.
During his first interview as a Palace player, the Belgium
international said: ‘A lot of things happened at Liverpool, When I
arrived it was with Rodgers as manager, but then he was sacked and Klopp
came in and had his own plan. But that’s part of football. I could have
done better, but I think I also needed some trust from the manager and
the staff.’
Benteke signed a four-year deal with Crystal Palace to put end to a
torrid time at the Merseyside; the former Aston Villa striker will hope
to put his past behind him and help an ailing Crystal Palace side back
to its full strength.
