Jurgen Klopp has become the sixth manager to be named LMA Manager of the Year more than once.

Klopp - who also won the award two years ago - was recognized by the League Managers Association for leading Liverpool through a spectacular 2021/22 season.

Liverpool have already won the EFL Cup and FA Cup ahead of Saturday's Champions League final against Real Madrid in Paris.

Klopp's team fell just short of Premier League title glory too, after recording the eighth highest points total in the competition's history.

Klopp was presented on Tuesday with the Sir Alex Ferguson Trophy - named after the manager who won the award first.

Ferguson handed over the award himself.

Legendary Manchester United boss Ferguson was crowned LMA Manager of the Year in 1993 and then again in 1999, 2008, 2011 and 2013 - the year he retired.

The only other managers who have won it multiple times are David Moyes, Pep Guardiola, Arsene Wenger and Steve Coppell.
