The head coach of Liverpool, German Jürgen Klopp, announced that one of his assistants will move to coach in the Saudi Roshn League. Speaking at a press conference on Friday, Klopp stated: "John Achterberg (goalkeeping coach) will join the Saudi league to be part of the coaching staff at Al-Ettifaq, which is led by Steven Gerrard (Liverpool legend)."
Achterberg has been Liverpool's goalkeeping coach for the past 15 years and has decided to leave the English club to join Al-Ettifaq following Klopp's announcement of his exit from Liverpool at the end of the current season.
Al-Ettifaq has several well-known players, including former Liverpool star, Dutch international Gini Wijnaldum, and French striker Moussa Dembélé, among other stars. The team currently occupies sixth place in the Saudi Roshn League standings.
