'David has to stay!' Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp admits he is happy West Ham didn't sack Moyes... as it would've made him the 'oldest manager' in the Premier League ahead of the Reds' clash at the London Stadium

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has admitted he is desperate for David Moyes not to leave West Ham as it would make him one of the oldest managers in the Premier League.

Klopp's Reds take on the Hammers on Wednesday night at the London Stadium, hoping to keep up their hopes of qualifying for Europe while keeping the pressure up on the relegation battling hosts.

However, the Reds boss has admitted he is otherwise 'crossing his fingers' for West Ham and hopes they do not part company with Moyes.

The 55-year-old jokingly stated he would have been horrified if Moyes left the club earlier in the season in what has been a tough campaign for the Hammers to leave him as the oldest manager in the division.
