Jurgen Klopp is leaving Liverpool at the end of the season but he has left his successor an incredible foundation to build on. As an external force coming into a new environment, Klopp leaves with his own print on the club - A print which will be proudly worn by Liverpool for decades.
Even when Klopp isn't the Liverpool manager anymore, he will continue to watch and support the club from afar. Klopp is already working hard behind the scenes between now and the end of the season to ensure that upon his departure, the club remains healthy and fighting for titles. There's nothing he'd want more than that.
If we look at Manchester United as a case study for replacing a long-term manager (when Sir Alex left), this is everything Liverpool want to avoid. The same can be said for the few years after Arsene Wenger left Arsenal.
But with Manchester United mentioned, Klopp wants to continue seeing Liverpool win the bitter rivalry between the two clubs. This time, though, the rivalry will commence off the field and in the transfer market.

Jurgen Klopp recommends Liverpool steal this Manchester United target
According to TEAMTALK, Jurgen Klopp has suggested to Liverpool higher-ups that they should sign Rayan Ait-Nouri from Wolves. The Premier League defender is interested in a move to an elite club after having his breakthrough with Wolves. However, Manchester United are also said to be interested in signing him - Something which, I'm sure, only convinced Jurgen even more.
Ait-Nouri is a terrific defensive player, who can either play as a defensive midfielder or left-back. This versatility would make him an incredible investment for the Reds and it's scary to imagine how he could've played under Jurgen Klopp.
