They are the League Cup, European super-cup, Premier League, Champions League, the FA Cup and the World Club Cup. A message on the plinth states: ‘So much more than the normal one, you made us believe.’ Thank you from John, Mike, Tom and Billy.
Klopp’s nine-year tenure at Anfield ended after his 491st match on Sunday, May 19.
British Silverware was “immensely proud to have secured the honour,” said chief executive Jackie Tear.
She added: “We were delighted to be entrusted with creating this special piece for Jurgen Klopp. The set of six replica trophies, which are presented on a wooden plinth, represent the most significant victories the team achieved whilst Klopp was manager. It is a stunning tribute to his achievements at Liverpool FC.

In 2018, Ms Tear spoke to The Star for a feature.

British royalty is mindful of what they spend, and they have accumulated a lot of stuff. Perhaps other heads of state and royalty have more income and they're playing catch-up. As a business we have made for every retailer with a royal warrant.”
