JURGEN KLOPP is already urging Liverpool fans to book their hotels for next season’s Champions League final.
The German watched in agony as Real Madrid keeper Thibaut Courtois stopped everything and anything in Paris.
And it allowed Brazilian Vinicius Junior to score the winner in the French capital and win his side the game.
Klopp felt his side did enough to clinch the trophy – but is instead wishing for better luck next year.
He said: “It’s not bad to get to the final, it’s already kind of a success. I have a strong feeling we come again.
“That’s how it is, because the boys are really competitive. We will have an outstanding group again next year.

“Where’s the final next year? Istanbul? Book your hotel.”
Liverpool had a total of 24 shots, with nine on target, compared to Real Madrid who had only four attempts on goal.
But one of them was Vini Jr’s 63rd minute winner, while man of the match Courtois did the rest.
Klopp added: “The dressing room, nobody feels a great season at the moment.

“It was almost impossible. We played a good game, not a perfect game. The opponent set up with a deep formation, it was tricky.
“The situation became dangerous. Courtois made top saves. We conceded a goal after a throw in.”
Liverpool lost their second Champions League final in four years, with the last coming against Real in 2018.
