The former Manchester United boss thinks Klopp will be under a lot of pressure to finally deliver a trophy for Liverpool when the Reds face Tottenham in Madrid on June 1.

“If Jurgen wins it’s an incredible achievement for him,” Mourinho told Sky Sports.

“If Jurgen doesn’t win, you know….to lose three Champions League finals…phew…that has to be really, really hard.

“But he is a very positive guy, I’m sure he’s just thinking about winning.

“Being a manager, and understanding what it means for a manager to play a Champions League final, there is always a negative side of it and the negative side is that one team will lose and one manager will lose.”

He added: “Spurs are not winning titles and to win the first one would be fantastic and could lead to other domestic trophies because the Champions League is the biggest one of all.

“Finals are not to play, finals are to win.”
