A Sudoku Tribute To Jurgen Klopp
1,004*** TODAY'S PUZZLE ***
The video Simon hoped he'd never have to make. With the announced departure of Jurgen Klopp in the summer, many Liverpool fans have been left bereft. Celery has constructed this fantastic tribute sudoku to the great man. You'll Never Walk Alone.

Rules:
As a Liverpool fan, the news that Klopp was leaving the club left me broken. I, and many others, are immensely grateful for what he achieved and how he revolutionised the club. This is a puzzle as a tribute to Jurgen Klopp. You'll Never Walk Alone.
Normal sudoku rules apply. The 3x3 grey squares are additional regions of the puzzle whereby digits cannot repeat within a grey square. The YNWA lines (in boxes 2,4,6, and 8) are GERMAN whisper lines ie adjacent digits upon the line must differ by at least 5. A digit in a football (white circle) indicates how many footballs contain that digit.
