JURGEN KLOPP rapped with John Barnes on stage as the former Liverpool manager showed he is a mover and a shaker in more ways than one.
The German looked natural as he danced on the floor at a boozy farewell party with his team.

Liverpool stars and icons like Sir Kenny Dalglish were later seen strolling through the city center as Klopp left in the same style as he arrived, winning the Champions League and Premier League along the way.
Former Reds and England winger Barnes famously rapped on New Order’s No. 1 hit World in Motion, the Three Lions’ 1990 World Cup anthem.
And Klopp modestly suggested his own singing efforts at the weekend played second fiddle to the former Celtic manager.
Quitting after nine years in charge at Anfield, Klopp recovered from his night of partying to post a clip of his rap on Instagram.
He added the words: “John Barnes – what a legend… not just in football!”
Klopp’s video on Monday afternoon came as the club confirmed that Feyenoord boss Arne Slot, 45, will become his successor on June 1 – “subject to a work permit”.
The 56-year-old wore his cap backwards, complementing a casual look of a black shirt and jeans, as he danced on stage in front of a crowd.
Klopp’s men have faded in recent weeks, finishing a distant third, seven points behind Arsenal and nine behind champions Manchester City.

But a final-day 2-0 defeat of 10-man Wolves at Anfield helped reignite the party atmosphere.
Klopp continued to lift spirits with an emotional farewell speech on the pitch.
He said: “It doesn’t feel like the end. It seems like just the beginning, because today I saw a football team playing full of talent, full of youth, full of creativity, full of desire, full of courage.
“That’s a part of development, that’s what you need obviously, but obviously since a few weeks I’ve gotten a lot of attention, it’s really uncomfortable, but in that time I’ve realized a lot of things.”
Players including Virgil van Dijk, Darwin Nunez and Mo Salah were later spotted at Liverpool’s Titanic Hotel.
And after a meal at the table, it was time for Klopp to produce his duet against Barnes.
He also gave a long farewell speech on the club’s X account.
Klopp added: “I just want to say I love you. It was absolutely incredible. Thank you for the trip, I’m so proud of you and I’m so proud that you were allowed to be part of it.
“Thank you very much, and the sky is the limit for you boys.”
