What's with the trend of announcing departure half a year before? Klopp, Xavi, Tuchel. Who next?
Guess it becomes a chain reaction when many big clubs are after a new coach, especially when clubs are fighting for the same coaches. A sign of "hey coach, don't sign with anyone yet, we have an open spot this summer as well".
In case of Xavi & Tuchel, it was to clear the air and easing the pressure.
Fans & media know he is gone anyway so won't be saying fire him every single minute.
No idea why Klopp did it, if I take a guess it is because he prefers to announce it himself before it is leaked to the media.
