Newly appointed Everton coach Carlo Ancelotti has hailed his Merseyside rival Liverpool’s boss Jurgen Klopp.
Klopp is on top of the world at the moment having won the CL and the FIFA Club World Cup and closing in on a Premier League title as well.
“It was after [leaving] Real Madrid, I had a chat with the owner,” Ancelotti told a news conference.
“They were looking for a new manager but I think they made the right choice with Jurgen. He is doing fantastic work at Liverpool, so well done. He has created a fantastic team and fantastic players.
“They are, in this moment, in a really good shape, really good condition, but we must not think a lot about the opponent.”
“I know how Evertonians would like this and we have the same dream, to beat Liverpool at Anfield,” he said.
“It is a dream for us and an opportunity, so we will try. Usually there is a big rivalry when you have two teams in the same city. It was the same in Milan and Rome when I was there and I know how the supporters are excited to beat their rival.”
