Jurgen Klopp becomes a grandfather.
The Liverpool coach revealed this in a live interview with one of his ex-BVB players.
But his son will not become a father.
Liverpool – Jurgen Klopp is not doing as well as he would like this season at Liverpool.
In the Champions League, last year's finalists were defeated by Real Madrid in the round of 16, and things are not going according to plan for the Reds in the Premier League either – qualification for the premier class is shaky.
In private life, however, the 55-year-old has reason to be happy: Kloppo will become a grandfather.

Jürgen Klopp becomes grandfather: Baby message in a live interview with BVB legend
Jürgen Klopp will be a grandfather, although he and his wife Ulla have no offspring together.
However, the two brought children from their first marriage into the relationship, one son each.
Ulla's son Dennis will soon be a father.
The Klopp son is called Marc.
So Klopp will not be a biological grandfather, but that does not seem to detract from the joy of the coming grandson.
"Perfect family": Klopp raves about his Ulla and sons
"Our two sons, my Ulla and I form a perfect family," Klopp once said as a BVB trainer in
Focus
.
It seems as if Klopp, his Ulla, the sons and soon the grandchild are a picture book patchwork family.
By the way, Klopp's successor at BVB at the time was Thomas Tuchel, who now celebrated his Bayern contract in a Munich noble restaurant.
