Klopp’s right hand man arrives at Liverpool

Liverpool’s new assistant manager Zeljko Buvac has resolved his work permit issues and will be at Wednesday afternoon’s training session, as per the Liverpool Echo.

The Bosnian was unable to start working alongside Jurgen Klopp due to a hold up with his work permit, but he will now be able to take his place in the dugout as Liverpool face Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday.

Klopp and Buvac were team mates together at Mainz over 20 years ago and have been close ever since.

Buvac was Klopp’s right-hand man at Mainz and Borussia Dortmund, so it was no surprise when it was announced that he’d be following his long-term friend to Anfield.

Klopp recently described Buvac as his “brains”, so he will obviously be relieved that the pair can officially start working together to help Liverpool get back on track after an indifferent spell left the Reds in 10nth-place in the Premier League.
