Trent Alexander-Arnold says manager Jurgen Klopp “will always be special to the club” as Liverpool draw in on their first league title in 30 years.
Alexander-Arnold, who has been at the club since he was six, says Klopp has done “everything” for the Reds and what he has changed has been “mind-blowing”.
Liverpool are six points off winning the Premier League title.
“You need to respect the items he does,” the 21-year-old right-back told BBC Radio 5 Live.
“To change the entire club, to vary everyone from doubters to believers, to urge everybody thinking an equivalent way, believing an equivalent way and having an equivalent dream…
“He just embodies the entire club. Even without being from the town, the country, and being local, he just clicks with the club. He does it with everyone – the fans, the staff, and therefore the players.”
Alexander-Arnold added that Klopp “develops the people around him” and “makes their dreams come true”.
