Jordon Ibe cannot wait to start working under new Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp, anticipating improvement in his own game under the German, but will not forget the impact Brendan Rodgers had on his career.

The 19-year-old made his debut under the former Reds boss, and was used often in the second half of last season.

He also started Liverpool’s opening two league games of the current campaign, but has been restricted to just three appearances off the bench since, his last coming in the defeat to Manchester United.

New boss Klopp, who signed a three-year deal at Anfield last week, has a big reputation for developing young players; with Ibe’s own reputation as one of the most talented teenagers in the Premier League, it would appear a good match for the winger.

Ibe, currently on Under-21s duty with England ahead of their game against Kazakhstan, is excited for the future under Klopp.

“I can’t wait to get back and start working with him now,” said Ibe.

“I can only try and get better with the help he’s hopefully going to provide for me, and there’s a lot of other young players, so working around him should be great and also for the senior players in the squad.”

The former Wycombe star also believes it is a shame Rodgers left the club, his three-year tenure on Merseyside ending after the 1-1 draw with Everton.

“It’s a shame [about Rodgers], because he was an important man in my career,” he added.

“But that’s how football is. There’s no promises in football and I wish him all the best for the future.

“I now need to focus and work under the new manager, he’s got good experience and did some great stuff with Borussia Dortmund.”

Ibe, along with Reds team-mate Joe Gomez, could be in action for Gareth Southgate’s side on Tuesday at Coventry’s Ricoh Arena.
