Sadio Mane had a twinkle in his eye when he said it.
He had already scored the winning penalty in the African Cup of Nations and the spot kick to send Senegal to the World Cup and, if he had missed from 12 yards when he could have clinched the FA Cup, Liverpool lifted that anyway, along with the Carabao Cup.
He would reveal more about his future, he said, after the Champions League final and, the way his 2022 was going, it is understandable if he imagined he would be able to announce his departure in a blaze of glory.
Mane had felt in the form of his life.
Klopp built from the front, making Liverpool quicker and more prolific before they actually won anything.
A combination of Thibaut Courtois and the inside of the post denied him the opening goal in the Champions League final.
He was the first Liverpool player in 11 years to score in a Champions League final; he has a further four goals in Champions League semi-finals.
