Jurgen Klopp says he is feeling "extremely positive about the future" at Liverpool after his former club were confirmed as Premier League champions on Sunday.

The Reds beat Tottenham Hotspur 5-1 on Sunday to wrap up the title and end a 35-year wait for supporters to be able to celebrate a championship triumph inside Anfield.
