# Klopp’s hilarious reaction to Rodgers’ imminent Premier League return

Jurgen Klopp is hoping that Brendan Rodgers finds himself a nice house in the Leicester area as he prepares to return to the Premier League.

[Speaking at his press conference, as reported by Carl Markham](https://twitter.com/carlmarkham/status/1100388153511284736), Klopp joked that he hopes Brendan Rodgers doesn’t want his house back.

In a bizarre series of events when the German took charge of the club, Rodgers became Klopp’s landlord, with the Liverpool boss renting his house after replacing him as the club’s manager.

Clearly, there are no ill feelings among the two, despite the fact it was Klopp who replaced Rodgers at Anfield.

The Celtic boss looks like he is closing in on a return to the Premier League after being given permission to talk to Leicester City about their vacant managerial position.

Claude Puel was sacked by the club recently and the Rodgers had been their number one target.
