Jurgen Klopp wins automatic place on Beard of the Year 2019 shortlist
The Beard Liberation Front, the informal network of beard wearers, said that after Liverpool’s 4-0 victory against Barcelona in early May to win a place in today’s Champions League Final in Madrid, Liverpool manager, and veteran beard wearer, Jurgen Klopp was awarded an automatic place on the Beard of the Year 2019 shortlist.
The shortlist is announced in late November with the winner revealed just before New Year 2019 following a public on-line poll.
The annual vote aims to find the beard wearer who has had the most positive impact in public life during the year.
The current Beard of the Year 2018 was shared between cosmologist Peter Coles and TV doctor Xand Van Tulleken
BLF organiser Keith Flett said, there are 5 months to go before the Beard of the Year poll gets underway but Klopp has a chance in Madrid to improve his standing, whether Liverpool win or lose the game.
