October 27, (THEWILL) – Following an outburst during Liverpool’s English Premier League victory over Manchester City, Reds’ manager, Jurgen Klopp, has been fined but is expected to avoid a touchline ban.
Liverpool defeated the defending EPL champions on October 16, thanks to Mohamed Salah’s goal, but the German was sent off for his outburst toward the assistant referee, Gary Beswick.
In the wake of his acts, Klopp expressed regret and agreed to the initial English Football Association charge. The FA statement read: Jurgen Klopp has been fined £30,000 for breaching FA rule E3 during Liverpool FC’s Premier League match against Manchester City FC on Sunday 16th October 2022.
“The manager accepted that his behaviour during the 86th minute was improper, and an independent regulatory commission imposed his sanction during a hearing.
“This sanction is subject to appeal by either Jurgen Klopp or the FA following receipt of the independent regulatory commission’s written reasons.”
