The German gaffer beat out Chelsea boss, Frank Lampard; Sheffield United coach, Chris Wilder; and Leicester City manager, Brendan Rodgers, Klopp’s predecessor at Liverpool.
The award comes after a wonderful season for the German, which saw him guide the Kop to a 99-point finish atop the EPL table, 18 points ahead of rivals, Manchester City.
